Armchair Distorted, Acrylic Glass and Paint
About the Item
This first collaboration with Marseille-based artist Iris Marchand revisits our piece Purity. Entitled Distorted, the transparent seat becomes a painting.
On the disassembled armchair, a body is painted, as if lying on the ground. Once the seat has been reassembled, the deformed body is recomposed into a convoluted puzzle with surprising lines. Throughout the day and as the light changes, the reflections of its lines draw on the floor and the walls a painting in perpetual motion.
Through this work of construction-deconstruction, we question our relationship to the body, the biased vision that we have of it, and how the social structure permanently distorts our feelings. “I was enthusiastic when Jean-Baptiste came to me with this idea. Playing with this medium gives a different approach to my paintings, it's as if they come to life”, says Iris.
Made to order, each seat is unique, numbered and painted by hand.

Waiting For Ideas
Waiting For Ideas is a creative studio that captures moments through Art and Design. Created in 2021 by Jean-Baptiste Anotin. Since his teenage time, Jean-Baptiste Anotin creates. He began by experimenting with automobile painting, reworking old bicycles that were good for breakage. He also played with counterfeit objects, ironically transforming these manufactured and calibrated pieces into unique and personal objects.
Following marketing studies and a first professional experience in the digital world, he realized that creating drives him: bringing new ideas, testing new materials, shaping new pieces. Waiting for Ideas was born.
He then approaches the world of textiles and fashion, through a collection retracing his adolescence. The textile industry being too ephemeral, he turned to another medium: furniture. A first work, entitled No Seat Belt Required, refers to his family history around the automotive industry. Then Self Reflection, which illustrates a tumultuous period, marked by covid and a quest for oneself.
Each piece tells us a story, personal and collective, freezing time to leave a trace.
