Commode aux Engrenages is an emblematic work in Ingrid Donat’s exploration of the commode – an item with which the artist has become synonymous. The sculpture features kinetic gearwheels built into its sides, whose rotation allow the drawers of the commode to open and close. Fusing anthropomorphic inspiration, structural integrity and historical significance, the work illustrates Donat’s ability to bring timeless sculptural elegance to functional objects.
