Licensed at the prestigious Academia de Diseño de Eindhoven, Pierre Castignola is interested in the patent concept in the world of design. What angle of investigation? A piece of furniture designed for a large number of people on our planet, the good and old plastic chair. Aunque nadie sabe quién diseñó la famosa silla, hay muchas reinterpretaciones de la misma que están patentadas currentlye. Remakes, which Castignola knew how to dismember, reelaborate and view a montage. Continuing, combine the separate sections of the seats to create a whole series of unique objects. Intriguing and surrealist, these conceptual pieces are both radical and critical, and we invite you to reexamine the ambiguous relationship between the patent law and the freedom of creation.
“The patent forms part of the intellectual property system. It is created to protect the inventors and creators of the robot in their early years of capitalism. It is a form of creating a secure environment to drive the creation. ¿By the way, if you want to do it today? "The patent system does not benefit the creator, except that it is used by large companies to secure the monopoly of the creation", indicates. ¿Y si la copy y la creación fueran dos procesos estrechamente relacionados? Is the copy a human necessity repressed by our Western culture? Because Pierre Castignola has designed “Copytopia”, our art from a place where we will recover the freedom of creation.
