Modou day bed

Modou is the name that Ron Arad wanted to give M’Afrique to the entire collection, dynamic and kinetic like a futurist bolide, in homage to the blacksmith Modou who worked with him in Dakar. It is Modou who gave him the opportunity to make the snapshot: his prototype. It is Ron Arad who gives Modou the chance for his work to enter the world market. Certainly not an ethnic or ‘normal’ object, but an incredible journey that runs around Africa. Ron Arad and Modou: two iron-makers, two blacksmiths where differences melt away when it is the object created that brings together two apparently distant worlds.

The seating collection is made by weaving polyethylene thread traditionally used in Africa for fishing nets.
