During Paris Fashion Week, Bocci introduced a unique Paris edition of its latest creation, the portable glass light Paris 14p, alongside a striking series of commissioned photographs by artist Kingsley Ifill.

Presented in an exclusive champagne rosé hue, the Paris 14p light becomes almost performative within Ifill's works, embodying fluid gestures that evoke the poise of a dancer. In each image, bodies in motion, bare and unrestrained, highlight the light’s free-spirited and adaptable nature. A collection of these lights, carefully arranged on a sleek black plinth, is framed by Ifill’s 1.9-meter-high canvases, creating an immersive exchange between light and body—an interaction that feels both intimate and immediate.

This showcase marks yet another chapter in Bocci’s rich series of artistic collaborations, bringing together creatives across disciplines for projects that transcend traditional formats. The 14p reimagines Bocci’s iconic 14 Series, originally launched in 2005, transforming it into a portable, candle-like table light—an evolution of elegance and versatility.
