The Single Spectator is part of the Spectator Shelf family, which is characterized by its amorphous shapes which at second glance indicate different faces. When a sensory stimulus is offered to our perception, the spirit accepts this piece and completes what is missing. By recognising the faces in the object, the role between subject and object is reversed and the shelf is moved into the position of the observer. It consists of a single element, which can be used as a small cabinet or side table.
