“There is a moment when the industrial object finally becomes a presence with esthetic value; when it becomes unusable.” 
Octavio Paz: Use and contemplation. Pink and green chair is a replica of Gerrit Rietveld’s famous blue and red chair design (1917). The blue and red chair is presented this time transformed through color –pink and green– into a Mexican chair. A simple discoloration in this icon allows us to see that in modernism formal investigations were the origin of what was an ideology that proclaimed that form follows function.
Pink and green chair tries to exalt the typical formal practices of modernism and at the same time criticizes its functionalist character. 
Within the space limited by the walls of the Panoramic View, there is a classic chair intervened in an apparently arbitrary manner, which is illusory extruded with filaments of color that shoot from the different profiles of the chair to the walls of the space, generating a three-dimensional scheme of what which could be a historical misunderstanding or a capricious appropriation, all this to generate a possible open narrative/conclusion in the mind and imagination of the viewer.
