“Carmen” Bar Cabinet
-
Description
The sentinels Ramón, Vilma and Carmen personify one of the most transcendent, instinctive acts that living beings have the pleasure of experiencing: caring and being cared for.
In caring, one weaves an intimate relationship with the other that transcends one’s own needs. This relationship is nurtured over time and is an act of mutual responsibility. It is not possible to care without listening to the needs of the other, it requires empathy and recognition.
Our collection is an ode to the act of caring and we do it through these ornamented characters. For this, we use artisanal processes such as carved wood and hand-turned metal parts, respecting the nature of the materials. The result is highly detailed objects that convey warmth.
Given that care has been for years an activity attributed only to women, we seek to transcend the gender barrier by proposing an alternative to the paradigm under which we operate.
These pieces arise from a series of reactions to gender violence and seek to raise awareness of the way in which we relate to each other and our surroundings.
We are Andrea Flores and Lucía Soto. We have worked designing together since 2010, and in 2014 we founded Comité de Proyectos, a company dedicated to interior design and furniture sales, located in Mexico City. What we enjoy most about our work is translating emotions and sensations into utilitarian objects and living spaces; that is, internalization. We like to create transcendent, durable and timeless pieces, with a contemporary style working hand in hand in collaboration with craft workshops. Together with our team of designers and artisans we have developed three collections of sculptural objects that have been exhibited in museums and galleries in Mexico and abroad; and we also have an extensive catalog of furniture for residential and commercial use. Our thinking is a constant flow between the subjective and the functional, the craft and the market, technique and art.
