Embryo Coffee Table by Taras Yoom

About the Item

Embryo Coffee Table by Taras Yoom Limited Edition of 21 Dimensions: D 40 x H 65 cm Materials: Wood, metal, plastic. The table is made of metal and wood. The table top is presented in the form of a bird. It is made and painted entirely by hand. Coffee table Embryo is the externalization of the first bird, the only deity of the Planet of Mysteries. According to a legend, no one knows the birth origin of the feathered, but on the Planet of Secrets there is a find in the form of half an egg with a trail of the bird-progenitor inside. The inhabitants of the Planet of Secrets use these tables in temples for a mystical ritual. They sit down at the table, knowing that only people, who drink tea with them, will have their wishes come true. The wish must necessarily be within certain knowledge — to find out some serious secret that gnaws at the one who came to the temple for answers. Legend: A secret is information hidden from everyone; sometimes it is part of the governance of states, worlds, planets. These secrets can be hidden in people's minds or in history. Therefore, all the inhabitants of the Planet of Secrets are eager to drink tea at this table to find out what their governor is thinking about, or where the treasure is located, or how a continuously operating machine works. Of course, this opportunity isn’t given to anyone. The concept is an egg that flew into the red thread of life and got stuck in it. 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.
