THE SHIPPING by Andrés Reisinger

The First REISINGER ANDRÉS Online Auction x Physical Furniture & Digital Objects

Reisinger Andrés is an artist, creator, director and 3D visual designer. His design transcends the boundary between the digital and the material: two domains, which are often perceived as the opposites, Andrés challenges that perception and channels through a subtle connection between the two realms.

The work of Reisinger Andrés has defined a new generation of aesthetics. Just take a look at the feed of your favoгrite creator and it won’t take long to see works inspired by him. Plush materials, a soft pallet, and dreamy sceneries fill his works with such a richness of emotion that they almost make you tingle. They are moments you want to enter into, memories you wish you had, and worlds that feel, at times, more real than your own. His style is so provocative that when the internet found out his signature ‘Hortensia’ chair was solely a rendering, they did everything they could to convince him to create the physical version. It was too compelling for it not to be ‘real’, and so Andres spent a year breathing it to life. Now a physical version rests in the Design Museum of Gent, it has graced the covers of Architectural Digest, and it is soon to be available for purchase globally. You could say that the work of Reisinger Andrés is all about transportation - it leads you from one reality to another and makes you believe each is real. This leads us to his new body of work, “The Shipping”.

“The Shipping”, by Reisinger Andrés, is a collection that presents ten pieces of furniture. Five come with physical counterparts, but all ten can be implemented digitally in any open-world. They also come with the promise that they will be iterated on in the future to continue being open-world compatible. This is the next step in Andrés power to transport his viewers. It is a manifestation of a new hybrid reality.

Andrés, together with his peers from Reisinger Studio, is setting up a first 24h online auction that will be held on the 19th of February, 2021, and will feature the designs from ‘The Shipping’ collection which will only be revealed anytime before the auction.
