EXHIBITION & DISPLAY / VIDEO PERFORMANCE / PARTY

ART PRODUCTION / PROMOTION

For Pharrell and Galerie Perrotin, we sourced suppliers to build the 4 Plexiglas Tank Chairs, designed by the artist. From the preliminary designs and sketches provided to us, we rendered a 3D model, and ultimately produce a mockup to-scale. Throughout the process, we coordinated with Pharrell and his team for feedback. Once the pieces were produced, we organized promotion at Colette Paris, and in a variety of French magazines including Clark and Jalouse.
