Marfa

The elementary energy of minimalism. Marfa. A small ghost town in Texas, where the artist Donald Judd settled in the 1970s. He established a radical artistic regime here: in situ art, humble industrial materials, an obsession with simplified geometry, functional objects, and spatial transformations.

This minimalist dogma created by a few artists including Carl André, Agnes Martin, Dan Flavin, and Frank Stella, inspired Sandra Benhamou for her new collection. Pieces of furniture constructed from solid wood and natural materials. Elm and cork, pine and raffia, ash, cherry wood, wool, and jute, the Marfa collection features a serie of furniture pieces showcasing the demanding design of simplicity and minimal forms.
