Stripped of all its spiritual strength but paradoxically destined to reappear as a sacred religious reference in the home of whoever BUYs it. 2017

Ironic yet functional and obviously super-light interpretation of the classic office chair Superleggera by Gio’ Ponti for Cassina (superlight chair). Work often keeps us enthralled, or as in the Italian saying “incollati alla sedia” – glued to the chair – but this tribute to Gio’ Ponti is a hymn to light-heartedness instead. Commissioned for the Supercolla Project, curated by Guido Musante and Maria Chiara Valacchi presented at Martina Simeti Art Gallery in Milan. 2018
