The Reforms
Location: Rarely, if ever, here or there, but always in transition

spanish artist maximo riera has designed 'octopus chair', a limited edition piece that is part of a larger
collection entitled 'animal chairs'. the series consists of more than fifteen different works where the marriage
between furniture and animal is the main component.
choosing the chair based on its banality in our everyday lives, the series looks to bring life to the basic
function of the object, making it more present while creating a stronger connection between the spectator,
the chair and its environment.
