In Kyrgyzstan, the bride´s mother sews a rug that has as many as possible crossing seams. Each intersection point will bring a lucky day to the couple´s life - this is what the tradition says.
Designer and artist Florence Doléac got inspired by this tradition and created „La Chaise mise à nu”.
French Florence Doléac´s work bridges the gap in between design and art. She questions definitions and functions with the objects she creates out of articles of daily use. If it´s her humour or the ability to inspire her objects with a very poetic touch - I am not exactly sure WHAT it is that makes me stunned. I can only state - I am.
