Rocking Chair II
Rocking Chair II is a functional contemporary sculpture by Antwerp-based artist Marius Ritiu that blurs the boundaries between art, design, and everyday utility. Conceived as a piece of collectible functional art, it transforms the familiar form of a rocking chair into a sculptural object with a strong architectural presence. Entirely hand-hammered in copper and finished with a rich patinated surface, the work celebrates the expressive qualities of the material, revealing subtle variations in texture, tone, and light. Balancing craftsmanship with contemporary aesthetics, Rocking Chair II invites both contemplation and interaction, existing simultaneously as a usable object and a distinctive work of art.
