Knoll worked with Chicago artist Noel Mercado to create three unique artworks inspired by its classic chairs. Working with the ‘Cesca’, ‘Spoleto’, and ‘Wassily’ chairs as his starting point, the artist applied his signature intervention using discarded car parts.
The project is part of Knoll's mission to champion emerging artists (senior vice-president Jonathan Olivares told us more about the brand’s future in a recent interview), and Mercado's practice, based on repurposing found objects into furniture and garments, formed a perfect partner for the brand.
