About the Item

Nysten trained at Karen Chekerdjian design studio and was part of lighting designer Michael Anastassiades’ team. Since 2015, Nysten started experimenting in her own studio with objects and interiors that combine stories of different cultures. The Monobloc chair - an iconic object that was mass produced in the 1950s, has revolutionized manufacturing and taken over our homes and businesses as a low-cost seating option. Nysten’s observation of its mass presence led her to an experimental project that relates to our social behaviour; how cultures and places affect us and the way we perceive ourselves. The material in this series of chairs has been sourced from various locations in the region. The importance of the craftsmanship and the time dedicated to produce each embellishment is contrasted with the pace of the plastic chair’s making, known to be manufactured at a speed of 2min/chair. Nysten has collaborated with sewing amateurs to haute-couture designers and craftsmen to develop this collection of chairs. These pieces were newly commissioned for WEHE.
