The Gorilla V1 is a sculptural table lamp that merges organic abstraction with a refined study of form and surface. Drawing upon conceptual lineage from the biomorphic modernism of Constantin Brancusi and Henry Moore, the work channels a quietly potent presence: solid yet supple, assertive yet contemplative. Its silhouette—sinuous, asymmetrical, and in constant visual flux—evokes the dormant vitality and dignified poise of a gorilla at rest

The lamp’s shifting profile compels movement around the object, as each angle reveals a different relation between mass and void, surface and shadow. With its irregular volume and vegetal, almost primordial geometry, the work sits comfortably between sculpture and design. It is an object of utility, but also of enduring contemplation—an intimate monument scaled to domestic life

The lamp’s base, cast in a single piece of patinated bronze using the lost-wax technique, is the result of a rigorous artisanal process in italy. A hand-sculpted plaster model is translated into wax, then cast in bronze and finished with a naturally reactive patina. The surface deepens the work’s tactile and visual richness, revealing subtle gradations in tone and texture. In custom editions, a hand-applied 24-karat gold leaf finish offers a heightened dialogue between materiality and light

His extraordinary sculptural works EMERGe FROM an EXPLORATory process OF HANDS-ON experimentation IN SCULPTURE, COLLAGE, DRAWING, and technical innovation. In This AESTHETIC AND POETIC INVESTIGATION, Fanciullacci finds FREEdom in playing WITH DIFFERENT LANGUAGES AND MATERIALS, eventually giving LIFE TO his UNIQUE WORKS AND OBJECTS
