“Lightness of being” shows us the beauty of growth and decline in nature, captured in an enormous flexible lamp made of steel, carbon, felt and rubber.

Pepe’s other project, “A restless chairacter”, has the look of being overpainted again and again, taking its’ inspiration of an old wobbling chair. The chair looks stiff and sturdy at first sight but once you sit on it you notice how flexible it really is. Combining metal and rubber this chair is actually built for wobbling.

Pepe’s work can also be seen at the milan 2008 salone di mobile.
