Catalog excerpts

I have always been seduced by the perfect form the cactus symbolizes. The fact that it is modular, allowing for multiple combina- tions, has always seemed interesting. I wanted to exploit this quality, building up the piece with different shapes.The priority for me was that each part, if removed from the whole, would still be appealing but also have a function of it's own. So, a functional sculpture it was: A piece that could be as beautiful as the cactus, but that would offer a variety of uses. At the beginning, I thought of making a series of stackable stools in different materials. I thought about it for a while and started wondering, "why should they all be stools?" So we started working with the Moooi team on a new concept where each piece of the stackable sculpture would have a different use: mirror, table, tray, etc. A series of different colours, materials and finishes would then be applied to each vertebra making the whole richer and more flexible.
