Description

“ULTRA” Bench is part of the “Ultrastory” Collection: a unique work edited in only 1 copy.

The functional art piece is part of the “Small Tales” series: metaphorical images handcrafted through the use of polychrome glass hand engraved by the artist. The massive charred wooden board is the background to this allegorical tale: a pop vision that points to the everyday life endured during the lengthy pandemic.

A way to transform memory into a physical object through the playful interpretation typical of the artist.

 

That is a unique work: a wood charred top, decorated with a pattern made in glass marquetry, all engraved by the artist.

About the designer


Born in Venice in 1972. He graduated in Industrial Design at the Milan Polytechnic. After an experience in the field of goldsmith design, he arrives in Philippe Starck\'s studio. In Paris he is fascinated by design capable of expressing traditional craftsmanship in a contemporary key. Back in Italy he pursues these expressions by starting to collaborate with companies in which manual skill is a distinguishing element of production. The son of antique dealers specialised in Venetian glass art, De Carlo re-elaborates the different craft traditions with which he came into contact, through his personal creative universe. A mix of high culture and pop culture that offers a playful, at times disturbing, vision of the contemporary world.
