The designer Sebastian Brajkovic investigates the notion of perspective and distortion of form through his sculptural furniture pieces. His Lathe series reflects his longstanding fascination with rotation. This chair is made using traditional techniques of woodcarving, bronze casting and embroidery. Through a mix of hand-sculpting, moulding and 3D modeling, the artist visually distorts the work, physically stretching out the seats’ surface. Through his in-depth exploration of the theoretical and the technical, Brajkovic creates an aesthetic balance of structure, freedom and form.

He graduated from the Design Academy Eindhoven in 2006 and burst onto the art-world scene with his project Lathe. He investigates the notion of perspective and distortion of form through his sculptural furniture pieces.
