A dramatic, pendant lampshade, shaped into a classic image of guilt and morality. From a distance, The Fall of the Damned appears to be an organic and intricately textured ornament. Upon closer inspection it is revealed as a mass of naked bodies, reminiscent of Dante and Rubens, fused together in agonizing beauty.
The Fall of the Damned pendant lampshade, by designer Luc Merx, is available for sale at Generate Design.
This intricate lamp in black has a swarm of HR Giger’s Zenomorphs from the Alien franchise climbing upwards from a base of hand sculpted eggs and facehuggers.

The interior of the fins retains the original turquoise paint, for a subtle wink of color. Finished with a polished nickel socket, elegant cloth-wrapped cord, and a natural linen shade.” On sale here.
