Mammal Lamp is part of Atelier van Lieshout’s latest body of work: RENEGADE. Instead of performing the act of either artist or designer, Van Lieshout turns any object that he gets his hands on - even his own pre-existing sculptures - into lamps, making every work as valuable or invaluable as the other. In doing so, he elevates objects and contorts the market to his own will, rather than bending to it.
