Wood Carved Lounge Chair, Crafted by Tellurico for Emma Scully Gallery New York.

About the Item

Here is the Hand-Carved Wood Version of the Lounge Chair Designed and Crafted by Tellurico Design Studio for Emma Scully Gallery. Customization: If asked beforehand, the Lounge Chair can be customised with different kinds of wood or finishings. Starting from the Stools Collection a custom-made piece can be developed for the collector. ‘’Aesthetics Follows Process’’ is a project realised by Tellurico and commissioned by Emma Scully Gallery for the Iron Exhibition in New York. ‘’A.F.P.’’ can be defined as a conversational project born out of the many exchanges I had through Zoom meetings during the past year with Emma and Jude. Besides investigating what could be the most comfortable way of sitting on a rest chair and how these most mundane habits have changed throughout history; the main focus of the project was to try to show within the object the entire production process. Its aesthetic is determined by all the steps made during the making, rather than a pre-intentional design choice. The final piece has a clear imprint of the journey the material has taken to reach its final form and it contains within itself traces of all the previous production steps. The project is a sort of ‘’Material Transmigration’’, where an Abachi Tree becomes a series of rough wooden beams, which then become a carved positive mould, transformed into a cast iron rest chair that keeps the original veins, knots and texture of the First Tree. The objects contain visual aspects of the two major crafts used in its creation: for doing so, the production has been divided into two macro phases: wood carving and iron casting. The first phase was done in Europe, the negative mould was carved out of wood in the Tellurico design studio workshop, in the Netherlands, packed and shipped to the United States, where the positive mould was cast into iron. Designing through Zoom calls, the necessity of dividing production in two different crafts into two different continents, the fact that the entire project took place during a year where travel was cancelled and there was no possibility of visiting the casting facilities; all of these aspects are in a way or another present in the final object design and made this a collaborative process. The layered approach of the production, born out of needs and adaptation, can be recognised throughout the chair's landscape. The wood is there, still breathing underneath the metal. For further information please do not hesitate to contact us. The Lounge Chair is a handcrafted series of objects. This means that each piece is unique and can be slightly different from the photos shown on the website.
