A rotten joke (I don’t know how to make others), to be used as a wall lamp in my toilet.
Embossing on varnished handmade paper on a typeface model inspired by the IMPACT font.
I show you several different versions because, depending on the light, the result is really different.
The ends of the wall lamp are made of sanded and varnished cigarillo boxes.
A few years ago, I started to work on a text by Thomas de Quincey, creating a palimpsest by writing with walnut stain and partially washing it before adding a new coat of text. After 4 coats, I stopped and did something totally different with the text.
Lately, I was looking for something to soften the light of my bedside lamp and found this uncompleted work in his portfolio.
