Overlap of classical and conceptual

Vanishing Point 
'Basically, I make sculptures but they have to be practical,'explaines Dutch designer Sebastian Brajkovic on the occasion of his exhibition Vanishing Point which runs until 29 August at Carpenters Workshop Gallery in Paris. The sculptural furniture unifies art, craftsmanship, 3D printing, embroidery and mathematics:

"Fibonacci, of course, gets its name from the Italian mathematician whose number sequence is closely related to the golden spiral, which is represented in nature by seashells and cyclones alike. Brajkovic's chair, meanwhile, presents the seat and back converging to replace two legs with a curling double tail. Instead of clay, he used 3D printing to create the cast. 'I had to be strong with this piece; there was a possibility that I wouldn't go on with it,' he confessed, relieved that it came out stable." Wallpaper
