Pincovici’s Shibari Collection draws its inspiration from the ancient Japanese discipline of the same name. Originating as an erotic art form, Shibari Is a kind of rope bondage that literarily translates as the beauty of tight bondage. Over time, the practice has evolved to become a form of body relaxation, as well as an artistic technique to create living sculptures. Central to the art is creating patterns that contrast and complement the natural curves of the body. The beauty lies in juxtaposition: bare skin and rough rope, strength and exposure, calm and risk.
Pincovici collection honors the Shibari practice by applying the technique to a supple, sumptuous, and sensual furniture collection. Using natural rope and travertine, Pincovici has captured the juxtaposition between tension and relaxation that defines Shibari. With a spectacular, organic sense of movement in stone and rope, the collection is a celebration of embodiment, sophisticated eroticism, and ingenuity in craftsmanship.
