Artwork / Collectible design / Functional sculpture chair named ‘Gilga’ by Belgian artist Lionel Jadot. This chair consists out of metal and macadam and is truly surprisingly comfortable.
Presented at Design Miami/Basel 2021, Everyday Gallery is thrilled to present ‘Anthropocene Adhocism Living Room’ a solo by Lionel Jadot, an artist we’ve collaborated with frequently in the past years.
Anthropocene Adhocism Living Room confronts two observations, that of our current world kneaded by mass consumption and that which does not care about the rules and wants to change things. The Anthropocene is a new geological era characterized by the advent of humans as the main force of change on Earth, surpassing geophysical forces. This is the age of humans! That of an unprecedented planetary disorder.
Born in Brussels in 1969, Lionel Jadot is an interior designer, artist, designer, filmmaker, adventurer. But all at once, preferably. Lionel Jadot is firing on all cylinders. ‘I never throw anything, I pick up everything. Not having a green thumb, I’m trying cuttings, weddings against nature. I never forget a line.’ He’s inviting us in subtle, off-beat worlds, on the edge of reality. Its material is made of dilated time. A wandering spirit, he seeks a protective balance in a hostile world. It is his constant questioning: what happens to the place where we live?
