Calderilla Chair 5 Cent Coin Chair by Cristian Herrera Dalmau

About the Item

Calderilla Chair fulfills the function of an object (chair), it is in fact one of the chairs that Cristian uses to eat. But its true nature is not so much functional as discursive. The manufacturing process proposes a play on words. The materiality of the object appeals to the materialistic condition of the subject, understanding that his ultimate aspiration is to amass a fortune through the accumulation of miseries. ''For several years I jealously guarded every 5-cent coin that ended up lost in my pants. But by soldering all the coins together I only got one leg of the chair''. Cristian Herrera Dalmau (1988) He graduated in Fine Arts in 2012. There, he learned to work with iron and other materials, such as wood and stone. Soon started designing and producing furniture and other objects, for companies and individuals. This profession allows him to survive without killing creativity. At the same time Cristian focused his artistic production on performance and video installation; documented actions where objects, manufactured specifically for each occasion, are activated and subsequently presented in the exhibition space.
