DESCRIPTION
ÂTRANSCRIPT
MIRAMICS is a collection of ceramic lamps hand made in
Portugal. The concept was born from the Chinese plastic red lamps,
very common objects in traditional markets of Macao and Hong
Kong. Lines Lab appropriated and reinterpreted these lamps by
using local and ancient techniques and materials from Portugal,
the place where they were hand-made. MIRAMICS is therefore
an hybrid object, combining the ancient and the modern, the past
and the future, incorporating a reflection on the original sources of
the forms, functions, materials and usages of the objects. Produced
in a Montemor-o-Novo handcraft pottery using Chinese-inspired
molds, the lamps absorb in their forms but also in the production
process, the cultural and social values of mediation.
