Dlaguna Babel Table Lamp
BABEL TABLE LAMP
BABEL TABLE LAMP
Designed By Angel Jove
In the poignant, artisan Barcelona of the early 1970s, still under the rule of late Francoism, a fresh, provocative group of artists and architects began to sow the seeds for what after the Spanish transition to democracy by 1977 would turn out to be the multi-colour explosion of modern night time bars, highly commonplace by the early 1980s.

SCULPTURES
Alabaster was seen as a distasteful material, without the constructive strength of marble or the translucent nobility of onyx, and it was scantly used to create the small dire kitsch sculptures that flourished as a souvenir among the early tourists.

DETAIL
-Angel Jové was one of these urban conspirators. -Solely using solid or hollow alabaster was considered an affront to predominant trends at the time. -A spectacular and superbly striking lamp that evokes all manner of secrets, even among the most hush-hush tongues. -The Babel lamp refers to the unfinished biblical tower where there was a confusion of tongues, victims of their ambition. -On account of the process of craftsmanship, no two units are identical; however, every single one stands as a clear illustration of an evening tête-à-tête.
