About Scacco Matto Lanpara Eramangarria

Scacco Mattok 1960ko hamarkadako diseinu erradikalaren mugimenduan inspiratzen da eta ikusleak formak eta argia arakatzera eta elkarrekintzara gonbidatzen ditu. Magnetikoki konektatutako hiru elementurekin, lanpara eramangarria bost argi-eskultura ezberdinetan eraldatu daiteke, argiak etxeen itxura, sentsazioa eta giroa eraldatzeko duen zereginarekiko interes berri bat pizteko. Loreontzi, eskultura edo eremu jakin batean argia bideratzeko erabil daiteke. Bost konbinazio posibleek xakea gogorarazten dute, hortik Scacco Matto izena, xake matearen italierazko itzulpena.
