About the Item

Inflated Ass Chair by Taras Yoom Limited Edition of 50 Dimensions: D 85 x W 92 x H 83 cm Materials: Metal, PU, felt, fabric. The chair is made of a metal frame and medium hardness polypropylene. At the top the entire structure is done over with felt or cloth. «Inflated Ass» is a chair with a very natural shape, the shape of an inflated plant from the Planet of Paradise. I really like the idea that a plant, along given paths, can grow into something physiological and practical. And it was the way this plant was formed: under the ass of two-legged creatures. However, these plants are predatory and you should not tame and sit on them. Otherwise, you can find yourself in the immortal fetters of pleasure. Therefore, in order to have such a plant at home, you need to gain self-control and endurance to its charms. Legend: This chair is a predatory plant growing on the Planet of Paradise. It is a kind of «flycatcher» for all the living: as soon as a person sits on it, they can no longer get up. At such moments, the chair and person become unified whole so the Inflated Ass is able to both feed off people and nourish them. You should not tame this plant and sit on it. Otherwise, you can find yourself in the immortal fetters of pleasure. Therefore, in order to have such a plant at home, you need to gain self-control and endurance to its charms. On the Planet of Paradise the indigenous people collect wild sprouts of «Inflated Ass» and send them to the planet Earth. Zheltyshev Taras The artist/designer was born in the Siberian city of Tomsk in 1991. Parents, who were doctors and architects, influenced the choice of a future profession. In 2010, he entered the pediatric faculty of the Siberian Medical University. He had two passions at the university – biophysics and cartoon animation. Taras was engaged not only in laboratory part-time work, but also in an architectural bureau, creating interior items and art objects. In 2013, he took part and eventually won the Maleskin art competition, where he showed his illustrations. After that, art and passion for design began to conquer his soul. It gave him opportunity to constantly experiment and invent something new. So in 2014, while taking part in the international design competition A’ Design Award, he discovered new horizons in the design and in the same year, he showed projects in light fittings at Beijing Design Week 2014. His works were organic and functional. He was able to create natural images with a functionality. From this moment design, artistic activity and biophysics began to merge into a single unity. Taras created a multidisciplinary workshop where he studied many technologies and techniques for processing materials. Over time, his work blurred the boundary between visible reality and the hidden natural processes of organisms which he studied at a medical university. That led to prevalence of histological ornaments, molecular images and the living organisms’ colors and shapes in his works. Between 2014 and 2018, Taras won several design awards such as the A’ Design Award, Internetional Design Award, Skol Design Award and were featured at I Saloni in Milan and Salone Satelite in Moscow. Taras experimented on the visual functionality of an object that is able to change a person’s attitude to certain things. In 2019, he presented his works at the Collectible Fair in Brussels in the Young Designer category. After that he began to collaborate with two famous Moscow galleries of collectible design. At the same time, he starts cooperation with large factories for which he designed unique art collections of interior items. Again, in 2019, his works were shown in two galleries: Cosmoscow international exhibition of contemporary art in Moscow, and the collectible design exhibition Russian Antique & Art Fair. Since 2019, there have been many publications in magazines (Vogue, Elle decoration, Ad, Interior + Design, Interiors The Best, In / Ex, Forbes, DesignMet, The Rouge, Tatler) about an author who uses biological and natural knowledge with a personalisation approach in art design projects. Now Taras lives and works in Moscow in his workshop, where he constantly studies natural disciplines and creates objects with a soul. Taras declares: I create a person’s attitude to different processes and images. We are surrounded by countless details, complex systems that cannot be realized, but at the same time we live in harmony. I transmit a small part of the invisible world where organised molecules rule, they always strive for symmetry and do this through functional objects for human life. It is necessary to create contact, the exchange of information between complex systems and man, so that the latter can at least imagine them. When we get acquainted with a new device or image, we are getting knowledge about it, and this understanding alone can expand the boundaries in other areas of knowlegde.
