Kickie Chudikova
Name of Work: SWAY
Bent wood, foam, leather/maharam fabric / 32”w x 18”d x 10”hAbout the Work:
As we seek more comfort, we end up lounging on the ground in our living rooms, or simply sitting in the grass in a park. Created as a response to these circumstances, SWAY is a portable seat that functions as a playful swing, letting you rock from side to side. Loosely referencing Verner Panton’s Flying Chair, it plays with the individual’s balance, and balance in every way is what designer Kickie Chudikova strives for in all her work. Designed pre-pandemic, SWAY is a seat for one person. However, hypothesizing groupings of these swings gives us the opportunity to envision the creation of many distanced, safe happy moments in communal movement.
