Domestica was commissioned by Dilmos Gallery following investigations by Studio Formafantasma into rural craft. This chair refers to the Gerla Basket used by farmers to gather cereal crops. The gerla basket is also a symbol of the Italian resistance movement during world war II, as it was used to smuggle food and munitions.
