Product description

Designed as part of our Icarus installation shown in Milan which is based on the Greek myth about the boy who flew too close to the Sun. Sola represents the Sun which will get too hot if you fly too high. The full installation (including Wing lights) was later purchased by the Pompidou Centre in Paris for its permanent collection.

Product History
“Sola is based on the Greek myth, Icarus, about the boy who flew too close to the Sun. Sola represents the Sun which gets too hot if you fly too high. The shapes look a little like the flares that form and curl on the surface and edge of the Sun. Sola is based on the same geometry as our Coral light, with the same total number of shapes, but with extra limbs and connections. ” - David Trubridge
