PERSPECTIVE
Do you guys remember when we posted pictures a few months back of our visit at the Emmanuel Perrotin Galerie where we mentioned a secret project? Well here is some additional information as well as a few pictures.
The chair below is called Perspective. It was designed by Pharrell in collaboration with Domeau & Pérès who built it and will be making the additional chairs. The chair, as well as another chair design and a table will be part of a show in Paris at the prestigious Emmanuel Perrotin Galerie. The show will be from October 21st 2008 until January 10th 2009. The chairs will be available in a few colors and only 4 of each will be sold. The chair below represents the love between a woman and man.
“I had often wondered what it’s like to truly be in love,not lust for once..So I decided not to ask what it was like in someone else’s shoes or what it was like to sit in their seat..I decided to sketch out my own experiment; the perspective chair.”
haha, thats kinda dope
little creepy though!
whats with pharrell and all the vans?
vans x ice cream
?
cool picture of P though.
That is beautiful. It’s compelling. With what he said about love and then seeing the chair, it makes sense.
Wondering where it keeps going wrong. Facing the disappointment of yet another conquest.Walking away with nothing more than fool’s gold.Longing for that kind of true intamcy, that kind of knowing. What is the procedure for true, enduring love?
I feel like those legs belong to a couple that know each other like no one ever has known them. Spiritual, understood, real, and never subject to the opinions of others.
the chair’s dope. the van’s are ill tooo.
i seen you rockin the half cabs at the concert last night. crazy show braah, i don’t know what to say, it changed my life.
btw TELL SHAY MUCH LOVE ON SIGNING MY FITTED
the lust chair…hmmm…sounds / looks x-rated..or maybe it’s me. i must be a perv. but looks like she’s gettin it from behind? hehe… well the design is pretty. pretty kewl.
Wow… thats sick!
WOW How artistic, erotic and romantic. True love GROWS far beyond the universe it’s unstoppable once it starts, like Kudzu.
A lil weird, but there’s definitely something to it…
Yes that is very hot. Do want!
very interesting. sex in that chair would be…lol I hope I am not getting to x-rated!
I meant too not to….lol I hate grammatical errors especially when I make them! eurgh!
dope chair… very creative
syncity, that was my first thought too.
It’s a very sexy chair and I love the thought behind it (pun intended).
Willy Wonka decor indeed!!
:-)
It’s hard not to be struck by the figure of this beautiful piece. P, you have highly-conceptualized a hauntingly beautiful quality piece of furniture. I love it’s intellectual deep concept, it almost reminds me of Adam & Eve. This chair conveys the ultimate most important message. Such is the power of true love! Stylisticly, the pose of the legs are as lyrical as it gets. Sometimes we as humans momentarily stay against confusion. Treking this quest of finding true pure love for a lasting monogamous committment amongst all frivolous and shallow, superficial lust. You need more. Something worth of stimulation.
But at the end of the day, we all need to be reminded of something we know is true — that real love, as opposed to commercialized love does exist, in huge range and depth and pitch. I feel the piece pivots around, the love between a man and a woman the result of their natural tendency to be one. It’s a woman and man standing together…true love stands together in equality and balance to what is honest and pure.. between the two figures it can also be understood on a deeper level.
I have to agree, it does have an erotic tinge to it!!!
Thank you, for providing us with a unique and intimate glimpse into your mind of creations. You take art to a very deep level that makes it all worth while to look at your work and ponder on the metaphore. looking forward to furnishing my pad with one of your pieces!
been there…. done that…. lol
The Chair is dope!
THAT’S A NiCE PERSPECTIVE!
That’s definitely love right there.
Pharrell you look so amazing in this pic.
Love the Vans too.
And the shades.
Yessir!

While the chair is interesting- the inspiration behind PERSPECTIVE is even more so… Love is relative to each persons love learning experiences…
All Lessons Learned In Love
by Regina Treadway
After a while you learn the subtle difference
between holding a hand and chaining a soul.
And you learn that love doesn’t mean leaning
and company doesn’t always mean security.
And you begin to learn that kisses aren’t contracts and presents aren’t promises.
And you begin to accept your defeats
with your head up and eyes ahead
with the grace/strength of a woman/man, not the grief of a child. And you learn to build all your roads on today because tomorrow’s ground is too uncertain for plans and futures have a way of falling down in mid-flight.After a while you learn that even sunshine burns if you get too much.
So plant your own garden and decorate your own soul instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers.And you learn that you really can endure
that you really are strong and you really do have worth And you learn and you learn with every goodbye you learn…

I love this fantastic idea from the concept of using real legs and and the woman and man. I’m looking forward to seeing it in different colors. The fire station red is great though. I have to say it my immediate idea was that the woman is getting it from behind. Or maybe it is a turn on the phrase behind every man there is a woman or behind every woman there is a man. I guess it is just a question of perspective
That is the ugliest chair I have ever seen. Pharrell… what were you thinking? You look like an idiot sitting on that chair.
Kudos for the whole metaphoric use of legs though, that was pretty clever of you. You’re a smart guy.
In that photo it looks like Pharrel is being bummed by a dude & a chick at the same time, nice.
Or like his ass has 4 legs. Either way it’s a good look.
ART!!…
