Venice
Art by way of water.

The city in 3D, the Biennale, centuries-old palaces and plenty of time on the water.

These chairs are on show in The Only True Protest Is Beauty, at Fondazione Dries Van Noten.

I tried to recreate them virtually so you could discover them from every angle.

About the piece

The metal mesh is cut and folded like a sheet of paper, then stiffened with layers of polyurethane rubber. The oval openings and textured red surface retain traces of how the chair was made.

About the piece

Lionel Jadot took a chair from his family’s furniture-making tradition and reworked it in sheets of brass, with a split back and circular openings. Made by hand in Belgium, the piece was lent to the exhibition by Objects With Narratives.
