ProfessionalProduct description
The “Moloko” armchair, designed by London-based artist Jonathan Trayte, was exhibited in Brussels in 2018 and stands as a compelling example of functional art. The composition combines powder-coated steel, stainless steel, birch plywood, foiled pigskin, cowhide, raccoon fur, goatskin, and upholstery into a deliberately layered and tactile structure. Its contrasting elements - soft and rigid, organic and industrial - create a visually striking piece that challenges conventional expectations of seating while remaining fully functional.
Trayte’s work is deeply informed by the surreal qualities of everyday objects and the global language of consumption. Represented by Friedman Benda, the artist operates at the intersection of contemporary design, craft, and fine art. In this piece, his use of diverse materials and finishes reflects an ongoing investigation into the psychology of desire, where surface, texture, and color act as vehicles for meaning. By treating food and consumer goods as conceptual material, Trayte constructs objects that are at once familiar and disorienting, inviting closer reflection on how value and attraction are constructed.
