Calabarte is the pseudonym of a Polish artist named Przemek Krawczynski, whose art takes on a peculiar but incredibly beautiful form: cool lamps.

The name itself is a portmanteau of two words – art (obviously), and calabash, the fruit that carries his imagination. The calabash is a bottle gourd originating in India, although Calabarte gets his supply from Senegal. Due to ancient domestication and usage, the bottle gourd has an incredibly tough outer shell. In the past, the gourd’s usage was defined mostly as a water container, due to having a tough, smooth shell with an ergonomic shape for handling, and natural buoyancy on water. Nevertheless, it’s edible both raw and cooked, and used in various cuisines. But Calabarte’s usage for the gourd has to do with neither eating nor drinking, but rather, carving.

Due to the combination of dark, thick material with a light source within, the primary art of his work, however, shines in the dark. Website. CGPortfolio -Ehsan Dabbaghi. How To Draw A Wave | SURFBANG.
