THE HOUSE OF THINGS X MANJOT KAUR, COURTESY LATITUDE 28
 

Introducing the 'Hybrid Beings' Sofa, in collaboration with contemporary Indian artist Manjot Kaur, courtesy of LATITUDE 28. In her compelling series of works titled 'Hybrid Beings', Kaur challenges conventional narratives, weaving a tale that transcends patriarchal norms and redefines the symbiosis between ecology and the female form.
The House Of Things reimagines the flora in this provocative series into an upholstery that echoes Kaur’s modern rendering of a hybrid heroine, invoking a philosophical relationship between the “Ashta Nayika” and the endangered bird species.

ABOUT THE ARTIST 

MANJOT KAUR
Acclaimed Indian artist Manjot Kaur’s drawings, paintings, and time-based media attempts to de-patriarch-ize the sovereignty of ecology and women’s bodies. Her practice intersects the boundaries of speculative fiction, archetypal allegories, and precarious ecologies to push back against the centring of human as a protagonist and move toward a thinking that eradicates the hierarchy of being.
