Sitting is more than a physical gesture – it signifies lingering, gathering, negotiating. It is a form of communication between body, object, and space.

In collaboration with yardshedoffice and hosted within the spaces of the Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden, a group exhibition was conceived with the aim of presenting a diverse ensemble of seating objects. The selection brings together works by emerging German and international designers and artists, reflecting a broad spectrum of approaches to form, function, and spatial dialogue.

Thirty-seven selected seating objects — ranging from functional design to sculptural gesture — are arranged within a floor grid to form a walkable archive, a contemporary topography of sitting.

In addition to the exhibition concept and curatorial work, we collaborated with yardshedoffice to develop posters, an exhibition paper, and a catalog. Three of our own objects were included in the show.
