“Once the thought to design an armchair reaches the brain, a vision explodes. A vision so ephemeral that it demands enormous concentration to be recreated. The armchair in the vision does not have a design yet, but only the characteristic properties and functions. It possesses a form that is difficult for the brain to perceive, pasted all over with surrounding thoughts, and mental waste. It is like a transcription of a still undigested idea into a material body.” – says Kotryna Butautytė.

Kotryna Butautytė (b. 1992, Lithuania) graduated from the Vilnius Academy of Arts in Design Studies. She lives in Vilnius, where she engages in artistic pursuits. The artist takes a deep interest in circumstances that are independent of the designer in the process of design creation while creating domestic objects for performing daily functions.
