'Partu' Ngumu Janka Warnti Chair 'Black' by Trent Jansen & Johnny Nargoodah
By Trent Jansen
Located in Beverly Hills, CA
‘Partu’ (2020) is the Walmajarri word for ‘skin’ and is Johnny Nargoodah and Trent Jansen's latest collaborative project experimenting with this combination of disparate sensibilities. Found materials and leather are used to create awareness about Material Culture and recycling.
This collection was developed in Thirroul on the New South Wales Coal Coast. Johnny and Trent came together four times over a period of 18 months, developing new methods for collaboration that could shape their incongruent knowledge, methods, and skills in designing and making into co-authored outcomes. These methods include: ‘Sketching exchange’, a process of back-and-forth sketch iteration, allowing an idea to evolve with equal input from both creators; and ‘designing by making’, a method of working with materials at full scale, to design an object as it is being made. In this approach the prototype is the sketch and both collaborators work together to carve, construct and/or manipulate material, giving the object three-dimensional form as they design and make simultaneously.
