dialog

armchair, 2025

the place to be

between artwork and chair

this seating object rises up like a throne, celebrating both shared conversation and moments of silence. it invites you to pause, to linger and transforms the act of sitting into a ritual event. constructed in an archaic style, it reveals finely crafted details that reflect both precision craftsmanship and a clear formal logic. all components have the same thickness, which underlines the consistent rigor of the construction and at the same time reinforces the unity of the appearance.

its sculptural expression is accentuated by the distant feet, while the stringent graphic appearance and radical cubature give the throne an almost iconic presence. as an architectural construction, it unfolds in the room, becoming a space-creating structure that defines, frames and simultaneously challenges the context around it.

the consistent formal language balances between heaviness and lightness, appears monumental and delicate at the same time and develops tension between materiality and immateriality. in the space between sculpture and architecture, between function and symbolic meaning, a presence of its own unfolds. it illuminates the aesthetics of sitting itself and invites the viewer to question the boundary between everyday object and art.
