Icarus Wings Lamp Light
This lamp with wings
is named after Icarus in the Greek mythology, Daedalus and
Incarus. Daedalus was a great inventor who worked for ruthless
King Minos. When they tried to escape from the cruel king,
Daedalus built wings
for himself
and
his son by fabricating wings using
feathers and wax. Daedalus warned
his son not to fly too close to the sun, as it would melt the
wax, and not too close to the sea, as it would dampen the feathers
and make
it hard to fly. But half way to safty, Icarus became
ecstatic and careless. He flew too close to the sun
fell to his death, drowning in the sea.
Designed by Tord Boontje and made with mylar,
the feathered lamp is very unusual, elegant, and romantic.
