IN MEMORIA 1/4 Bronze and satin covered vintage bistro chair

Vintage bistro chair upholstered in satin straps and patinated bronze sculpture by William Guillon and Rebecca Plisson. Fascinated by space and science fiction, William Guillon gives us an interpretation of another world via his extraordinary organic light sculptures. Limited edition of 4 pieces. Each piece is unique

“This hybrid collection was born from a unique collaboration with French artist Rebecca Plisson. Her singular practice consists of recycling bra straps abandoned by the fashion industry to wrap and give life to forgotten objects. Fascinated by this extraordinary know-how, I wanted to combine my bronze work with my friend’s daring technique. For this project, we unearthed four old French bistro chairs, which we restored by combining our respective knowledge. The process of visible restoration has become the heart of our approach—a celebration of imperfection and transformation. At its core, this collection is a work of memory, where what is usually hidden is voluntarily revealed to breathe new soul into each piece. She explores the link between craftsmanship and reinvention, blending past and avant-garde to create a timeless aesthetic.” William Guillon
