About the Item
Folding Udder Chair by Henry D'ath
Unique Edition
Dimensions: D 45 x W 45 x H 77.5 cm
Materials: Wood, steel.
Piece is handmade by artist.
The folding udder chair merges two symbols of industry. A mass-produced bent tube chair and the mammary gland of a dairy cow. The chair frame is a found object, left discarded at a
refuse station. The udder is a parody of the cow’s organ, hand-carved from wood and finished in a gloss epoxy. In our current world these two things have been ushered increasingly closer together. Both manipulated to support our desire for comfort and indulgence.
Henry d’ath is a New Zealand-born, Hong Kong-based artist and architect.
Using predominantly salvaged material, the artist routinely handworks each piece over many months resulting in lucid, yet ambiguously functional pieces of sculpture.
Each work in this current collection is an individual edition in an ongoing series, hand-made by the artist themselves.

Galerie Philia
Galerie Philia is an international contemporary sculptural design and art gallery representing emerging and established designers and artists. The gallery is the brainchild of two brothers who share a lifetime passion for art, literature and philosophy. Their distinct academic background sets them apart from their peers, as it sees them following a rhizomatic and transcultural approach in the way they select works. This involves combining elements from multiple cultures in what becomes a network of harmoniously interconnected roots, ultimately revealing the beauty of each unique creation. The gallery’s non-hierarchical curation sits apart from the ephemerality of trends and focuses instead on the true aesthetic quality of the piece – alluring and timeless. Unlike others, Galerie Philia does not focus on a single style – whether minimalist, organic or raw – but rather embraces heterogeneity. The Galerie Philia takes pride in discovering new talents, providing them with multiple international platforms to showcase their latest creations. As well as propelling the newest generation of 21st century collectible design, Galerie Philia also works with internationally known design artists. Galerie Philia has a strong international presence, with galleries in Geneva, New York and Singapore. In addition to their permanent spaces, the gallery organizes temporary group exhibitions and artists residencies in first-class locations around the world.
