Curated by Omar Sosa, creative director and co-founder of Apartamento, the exhibition will examine comfort versus discomfort and how this dichotomy conditions and drives human behaviour, personal identity and societal norms. Combining utilitarian objects, sculptures, photographs and paintings into a visual landscape meant to provoke engagement from the viewer, Comfort investigates comfort’s relationship to aesthetics and the tension that occurs when an object can be physically comfortable, but visually or psychologically uncomfortable, and vice versa. 

The exhibition looks at comfort beyond a physical state, as a complete sensorial experience through the lens of diverse artistic interpretations of “comfort,” such as a John Chamberlain foam Couch, Nicola L’s monumental Canapé Homme Geant, and marks the first time Andrea Branzi’s rare Pigiama Armchair made for Alchimia’s bau. haus I collection will be shown in the US.
