Mattia Biagi, "Sit on My Face", Chair, 2022
About the Item
The “Sit On My Face” chair sculpture and the "Light Up My Face" sconce reveal the artist's intimate investigation of life and death, nature and civilization, preservation and transformation. A collage of images collected from pornography and art history magazines and Biagi's personal photos enhance the Carrara marble body of the pieces by a direct print technique merging image with stone. This anthology of memories, visions, and traces allows Biagi to draw directly from his subconscious to create material and three-dimensional collages Such as “Sit On My Face” and “Light Up My Face”.
The images, after having been printed and fixed on a marble slab are “cut out” and assembled creating statuary collages in the shapes and uses imagined by the artist.
One of a kind.

- Bronze Sculptural Panama Chair, 21st Century by Mattia BiagiBy Mattia BiagiLocated in Culver City, CA"Panama Bronze" is an art and design project, the result of the collaboration between the artist Mattia Biagi and Promemoria. The artist has poured hot tar on a real Panama chair, to bring the object closer to the material and to make it melt in the ground. Mattia Biagi has created what he himself called the "polarity of destruction and conservation". "Although the melted tar destroys the object it touches, in this case, the Panama chair - an elegant and finely crafted object - it simultaneously preserves it in its new and very different form". This is how the original silhouette of the Panama chair was turned into its new incarnation. Thanks to its experience in working with bronze, Promemoria has helped Mattia to refine his work of art, transforming the iconic Panama chair, designed by Romeo...Category
