RON RON, Black by Marion Baruch
The RON RON, originally designed by influential fine artist Marion Baruch, brings a unique sense of playful charm to any home. This object, bearing an uncanny resemblance to a furry pet, invites interaction and sparks imagination. Its tactile appeal is undeniably inviting, with a body of soft polyurethane upholstered in sleek black eco-fur. Whether it's perceived as a design object or a whimsical pet, the RON RON is an ideal addition to spaces that celebrate joy and creativity.
Introducing the perfect plaything for every home, the RON RON. This playful piece embodies a sense of mischief and fun, blurring the lines between furniture and animal. The RON RON sports a furry coat and an intriguing tail, with a name that echoes the comforting sound of purring. A companion object for the most intriguing of homes - why get a pet when you can have a RON RON?
This "object of company", as Baruch herself described it, has been showcased at prestigious institutions like MAMBO in Bologna and the Contemporary Art Museum in Geneva. It's a cleverly zoomorphic piece, a testament to design that's not afraid to be delightfully absurd.
