Parity
The Parity console (2021) is an exploration of the affinity between the beautiful and the grotesque. Inspired by Louise Bourgeois' Spider (Cell) 1997, Sofia wanted to create a piece that draws the viewer's attention, while also making them feel somewhat uncomfortable. Elegant features of the table are situated in close proximity to the more grotesque forms, creating an intriguing contrast and a strong visual presence.
Solid ash, scorched, stained and oiled.
