  • Bina Chair


  • Presented at the solo exhibition Hue Am I/ Hue I Am
  • From Kasai Series

Solo Exhibition: 
Hue Am I/Hue I Am


  • Meaning: ‘Bina’ means ‘Dance’ in Congolese Tshiluba. Tshiluba is one of the languages alongside three other native languages spoken in the DCR.


  • The Bina Chair is crafted from teak, featuring a handwoven raffia back and stabilized by a volcanic stone. This design playfully challenges perceptions of balance and stability, embodying the dual nature of my Belgian-Congolese heritage. It marks the inaugural piece of the Kasai Series, representing a bridge between cultures and histories.
