Seduta Balla Ash Chair Sculpted by Lupo Horiōkami
About the Item
Seduta Balla ash chair sculpted by Lupo Horio¯kami
Dimensions: D 60 x W 60 x H 70 cm
Materials: Milk ash wood
“the artwork [...] arises when the mind is willing to accept reality as it was the first time it meets it” (“aesthetics of the void”, g. pasqualotto, marsilio).
And if the futurists no longer wanted to have any relationship with the past but to concentrate on the dynamic present, lupo horiokami, with his art, seems to
want to focus on the theme of continuous impermanence.
East and west in comparison, in a synthesis where space (emptiness) and time (inconsistent) are the masters, where relativity and emptiness (“mu” in Zen Buddhism)
merge with Heidegger’s planning of “dasein”.
Lupo’s emancipation naturally translates into space.
Empty space, in the most eastern sense of the term, devoid of mental conditionings (“mushin” in Japanese), a preliminary presupposition for manifesting, producing,
originating from “nothing”. Empty space to accentuate the innate temporary beauty of things: from the traditional Japanese tattoo on the body - an absolute metaphor for
transience and suffering, where space is fundamental for the “full” - to the three-dimensional space of objects that “embody” the mystery and the intangibility of the
serene melancholy of the wabi sabi concept: nothing lasts, nothing is over, nothing is perfect.
Continuous exchange and harmony, the work of lupo, between ancient and new, east and west which is based on the silent wisdom of artisan know-how (wisdom of
the hands, read “limbs”) and the unconscious aesthetic propensity dictated by the tradition of great masters and currents of the past. If brutalism emphasized
the expressive strength of the structure, in lupo’s objects, in addition to using materials with the same roughness and natural imperfection, the existential
and mysterious members that become (also) in this case, structural, emerge. The combination with the gravity and monumentality (expression of transience)
of carlo scarpa, the material informality of alberto burri, the classic modernity of Gio Ponti, the material and conceptual essentiality of Brancusi and Fontana
are inevitable.
But it is the totemic aspect that surprises: the juxtaposition of these three-dimensional objects, which have the alibi of function, generate symbolic forms that celebrate the mystery of existence, that awareness of existence so dramatic and dear to the
master of masters of Italian design, Ettore Sottsass, a researcher like lupo, of the unknown through form.

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.
