With Me Lamp – Seletti
Particularly symbolic, this porcelain lamp reproduces two entwined hands, in an ultra-realistic way. This work evokes the set of marble hands carved by Auguste Rodin. The With Me lamp highlights the taste and passion of designer Marcantonio for this part of the body that he isolates to give it a complete form and independent life.
“With our hands we can touch, give pleasure, play, build, draw and deeply express who we are. These two hands represent a bond of solidarity of pure love, the light that comes out when we’re together.” – Marcantonio
For Marcantonio, objects must have character and cause astonishment, even if it means troubling somewhat. The With Me lamp adds an uninhibited, eccentric, arty touch to your décor. A true work of art, this sculptural piece can be displayed in our interiors to decorate as much as to illuminate.

ABOUT THE DESIGNER
By creating this collection, designer Marcantonio is exploring themes like the relationship between man and nature, art and design, philosophy and the way things are. These sculptural objects, at the boundary between art and design, create a dreamlike, poetic, fantastical world.
After attending the Academy of Fine Arts, Marcantonio started creating unique pieces of design, enriching them with artistic concepts. He is quickly becoming one of the most esteemed Italian art designers of his generation. Connections between people and nature are his favourite theme, interpreting both the dynamics and beauty of them.
