Jesse Chehak - Fool’s gold

“What’s known means nothing on this trying path of light and dust before finding the place to park a car, shut her down, gather what’s mine, and cover the last ¼ mile by foot. Here you can easily meandor along and inside the trench where chunks collide, like a long geo-dynamic palimpsest.The air feels spotty while the ringing of my eardrums becomes perverse. The rawness grows and I can hear the blood moving in my body. It is holding on as long as you can until the pull is too much. So you let go to the extent that integrity will allow and resume enduring and imagining all the time what a total release might offer.”

One Day Stand Product Design by Mobiliar

“One Day Stand is an object that affirms the human nature which brings laziness in front of the order or aesthetic. Clothes we have worn once is left abandoned at the path between the wardrobe and laundry machine. It isn’t clean enough to find its place in the wardrobe nor dirty enough to stand in the queue for washing. So the clothes start to gather like parasites in the symbiotic relationships with the chairs, sofas or ironing boards, until they are destroyed by our cathartic decision to bring the order into our living space. This utilitarian sculpture is the homage to all the chairs which had lost their identity under the burden of the abandoned clothes.”

Mobiliar is the line of the handmade products designed by Željka Zrnić, and made along with the local artisans in the small scale production. Mobiliar presents design which is lighthearted yet bold and the eye-catching objects for everyday use. The products are inspired by people’s virtues and flaws, attributes of the materials and emotions that colors bring to life.
