Grigorii Gorkovenko's Bubble chair is a stunning art object that defies expectations, combining robust aluminum craftsmanship with a gentle, inviting form. Crafted over 8 months in Khabarovsk city, Russian Federation, this collectible design challenges traditional perceptions of furniture, offering a paradoxical experience that is both soft and hard, tender and brutal.
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Grigorii Gorkovenko's Bubble chair challenges conventional notions of furniture design. Crafted from robust aluminum using handcrafted techniques, the chair's seemingly inflated form belies its sturdy construction. The choice of aluminum was deliberate, as the designer believes it to be the most "alive" material, offering a unique texture that resonates with the energy of the object.
The chair's interaction with light and shadow adds to its mystique, projecting a cosmic chill in the shade and transforming into a "hot thing" in the sun. Its paradoxical nature makes it a captivating art piece for collectors or a focal point in public spaces, ensuring that it never fails to command attention.
Grigorii Gorkovenko's design journey for Bubble was inspired by a childhood dream of sitting atop a hot air balloon, which he has reimagined with a contemporary philosophy. The chair's creation posed creative and technical challenges, but the result is a testament to the designer's "serious fun" style, where opposites converge to create objects of profound interest.
Grigorii Gorkovenko's work has garnered international acclaim, including the prestigious Silver A' Design Award in 2021. With a commitment to reviving traditional craftsmanship and utilizing environmentally friendly materials, the designer's creations offer a blend of inspiration, nostalgia, and modern exclusivity.
