Description

Comic Explosion is a unique suspension lamp designed by Ingo Maurer in 2010. For this project, Maurer returned to the theme of capturing the essence of an explosion first seen in his seminal 1994 ceiling light ‘Porca Miseria!’ In ‘Comic Explosion’ he incorporates a synthesis of comic book artwork and typography in a large-scale ceiling light, the size of which serves to further underline the visual impact. The light, seemingly in mid-explosion, effortlessly captures uncontrolled energy and the interplay of light and shadow, of motion and dynamism.
