About the Item

Child The Y Chair by Kilzi Dimensions: D 25 x W 36 x H 81 cm. Materials: Wood, Metal. Weight: 6.5 kg. All our lamps can be wired according to each country. If sold to the USA it will be wired for the USA for instance. The name “Y” stands for the way the rear legs and the back support are placed. This simple chair leans forward in a flexible and articulated way, in a bit of a childish attitude and imitates some wooden toys and children’s sketches. When turned around it can also be used as a little horse. This simplicity and naivety of the less-practical, in a world of constant pressures towards perfection and performance is a way of communicating peace and equilibrium. Technically having three pieces meet at the seat was a challenge that remains concealed inside the wooden structure, using metallic pieces to add sturdiness. The back support is meant for the lower back and as a handle. Jorge Suárez-Kilzi was born in Venezuela to immigrant parents of Spanish and Syrian descent. His collection of works is signed under his mother’s last name, Kilzi, which is also often used to describe a person who works with plaster and chalk-unconsciously leading Jorge down a path he was destined for. The name has a link to a hard childhood in movement, to an immigrant background, to Latin American and its vernacular arts, to a sense of movement and evolution. As a grown man, the sensibilities of his childhood took him all the way to Japan, where worked as an architect in the offices of Sejima+Nishizawa Associated Architects/ SANAA and Junya Ishigami. Swiss architecture, which seemed in contrast, firm and steady, called upon him on a different basis, a return to order but also a reconnection to nature. A recent trip to Mexico and the mesoamericas, felt to Jorge as forgiveness to his early history and aesthetics. Driven by years of immersion in exotic culture and architectural experience, in 2018, he made the decision to become a freelance architect and artist, going from fields of architectural visualisations to ceramics and furniture, giving special attention to drawings and decorative motives. Every piece is expressed in simple forms and delicate emotions, where fluid silhouettes accompany each other like a soul in companionship. Jorge’s recent creation is titled “Mush” Lamps, comprised of two mushroom-shaped lamps made entirely of fibreglass and organic resins. This opaque material allows light to spread outwards, imbuing a warm glow and ambiance into any interior - existing as both a practical light source and ornamental piece. Jorge shares that his project began with no particular form in mind but later found a resemblance to mushrooms when complete-which he also shares a fascination for the fungi kingdom.“.
