The DC2108 Bench embodies Vincenzo De Cotiis' neo-primitive aesthetic, where ancient forms collide with modern elements in a marriage of raw materials and natural characteristics. The elongated base and textural surface, sculpted with hand-painted recycled fiberglass and stromatolite, alludes to a sense of temporality, and provokes the viewer to question its time of creation. At closer inspection, subtle patterns are revealed from the smooth material, nodding to a deeper exploration hidden within its structure – layers that are fueled by parallelisms of space and time.
Artist
Vincenzo De Cotiis
Vincenzo De Cotiis is one of the pioneers of contemporary collectible design. Born in 1958 in Italy, De Cotiis lives and works in Milan. De Cotiis’ work represents a winding path that often doubles back upon itself, one fuelled by parallelisms of space and time, cultural layerings and quantum leaps. A process imperceptible to reason and intellect yet manifested through the materiality of his countless works.
