Exclusively for STUDIOTWENTYSEVEN Engel’s Who Are You series explores the nuances of human perception and interaction. With a dash of irony, Engel contemplates the hasty judgments we make when we first encounter one another. The three chairs beckon viewers to ponder the essence of identity through their distinct personas. Crafted from the same elemental components, the chairs appear identical at first glance, but upon closer inspection, their idiosyncratic personalities emerge
A sense of openness and warmth emanates from “Who Are You I”. With inviting curves and a welcoming stance, it embodies a friendly demeanor, inviting us to ease and conversation. “Who Are You II” exudes an air of fervor and unrestrained emotion. Its dynamic silhouette suggests an enthusiastic vibrancy, evoking a sense of excitement and unconstrained passion. Finally, ”Who Are You III” exudes an aura of tranquility and composure. Its poised structure and understated elegance convey a sense of calm restraint, inviting contemplation and introspection
When positioned together, these chairs engage in a whimsical dialogue, their contrasting personalities sparking playful exchanges, emphasizing the intricate interplay between individuality and uniformity. Handcrafted in Latvia by master artisans, the who are you series is in strictly limited edition, signed and numbered, with custom finishes available Upon request
