Mistinguette: who are you who are we
The French cabaret culture has always been a specificity of my country. Either a place to be seen either a place to see graceful ladies in a show. Beyond some feather effects, the voyeurism is questioned as well as the role of the woman in the French society. But night bars are also places to be seen as a customer and as a member of the kind of community. The mirrored metallic surface of the cabinet is a way for its user to see himself surrounded by the “panache” of the half circular ornamental top shape. The contrast between the very minimal and simple shape and the feathers, even if white, gives a unique presence to this piece of furniture bringing with modernity, functionality and a certain sense of humour some reminiscence of the eternal questioning about nudity in the society.
