About the Item

Composed of basic geometric shapes, circle, triangle, square, this lacquered wood sculpture reflects Robert-Jean Chapuis's formal vocabulary, influenced by Bauhaus and neo-constructivist aesthetics. Its frontal composition, mounted on a glossy black base, uses primary colours and clean volumes to evoke a miniature architecture or graphic totem. As both a photographer and designer, Chapuis brings his visual research into a vivid, three-dimensional language. Edited in the 1980s by Splash, this sculpture captures the blend of precision and playfulness that defines his sculptural work. Manufacturer: Splash France, circa 1980
