Metal, plastic, foam and leather - Edition of 6 pieces (3 Solo & Pillon saddles, in 3 different colors + 3 Banana saddles in 3 different colors) // Banana Saddle (Red) by Olivier Mosset is a sculptural piece that transforms an everyday motorcycle saddle into a minimalist art object. Created in 2019 using metal, plastic, foam, and leather, the work presents a sleek black seat with a striking red rectangular insert at its center, drawing attention to its bold, graphic simplicity. Mounted against a textured wall, the piece merges functional design with Mosset's minimalist aesthetic, emphasizing form, color, and material over narrative. Part of a limited edition of six, each saddle in varying colors, Banana Saddle (Red) exemplifies Mosset's approach to reducing objects to their essential visual components, inviting contemplation on the boundaries between art and utilitarian design.

What is site specific art?
Site-Specific Art is a form of artwork created to exist in a particular location, with the artist considering the site as an integral part of the creative process. Robert Irwin was a key figure in promoting this art form in California. Site-Specific Art emerged as a reaction against modernist objects, which were often portable, commodified, and confined to museum spaces. In contrast, Site-Specific Art is inherently tied to its location, challenging the traditional notions of art as a transportable and marketable commodity.
