Worn

The sofa shape is based on a design by Job's late friend designer Jan des Bouvrie's ‘Qube Sofa’ in 1969, yet now portrayed in its least presentable but most loved shape. The drapery and folds are reminiscent of a 17th century Baroque sculpture but the expression here is of a worn couch. This piece embodies the stark contrast often found in Job's oeuvre, juxtaposing the realms of high and low culture. It showcases the raw authenticity of spending countless weeks sculpting something inherently imperfect and real, a portrayal one might hesitate to display, let alone immortalize in bronze. Sofa made of polished bronze.
