This project
proposes an observation of the present from another perspective, from the future, so the present becomes the past.
The pass of time has made objects, once useful, complete junk incapable of actualizing to the speed of the market. The lack of forethought in which they are fabricated makes for a hard reutilization, and the capitalist society incites its disposal and its whole replacement.
The creation of this chair comes from this futuristic context and seeks to give an archaeological view to objects coming from the trash, which are in themselves significant to an era. These objects are elevated and their hierarchy, changed.
Distancing the obsolete objects from the purpose they were created, we are able to decontextualize them changing their use, so we can reuse them. This chair represents a personal vision of the mediation between the future and the present past.
Este proyecto propone observar desde otra perspectiva la actualidad, desde el futuro, por lo que la actualidad se convierte en el pasado.
El paso del tiempo ha hecho de los objectos, una vez útiles, completos trastos incapaces de actualizarse a la velocidad del mercado. La falta de previsión con la que se fabrican, dificulta su reutilización, y la sociedad capitalista incita a su desecho y a una sustitución integral.
La creación de esta silla viene de este contexto futurista y busca darle a los objetos de la basura una visión arqueológica, significativos de la herencia de una época, elevándolos y cambiando su jerarquía.
Distanciando los objetos obsoletos del propósito por el que fueron creados, conseguimos descontextualizarlos cambiándoles de uso, con el fin de reutilizarlos. Esta silla representa una visión personal de la mediación entre el futuro y el pasado actual.
“Time is a landscape and if you had the right perspective on the universe you would see all of it layed out in front of you, all past, present and future as a hole thing.”
