It is Maurizio Cattelan, an inescapable figure of contemporary art, and photographer Pierpaolo Ferrari who created this capsule collection for Seletti. Unlike any other, it is provocative, amusing, absurd and eccentric all at once. The plates, mugs, tablecloths and soap in this collection are decorated with surrealist images taken from the Toilet Paper magazine, founded in 2010 by two Italian artists. Perfectly manicured cut-off fingers, soap with a bite taken out of it, fish stuffed with precious gems, a canary with a cut-off wing, and more. Dreamlike Toilet Paper motifs tinted with black humour inspired by the worlds of fashion and advertising, combining commercial photography, twisted visual narratives and surreal imagery. Toilet Paper questions our contemporary obsession for images, explores our most unspeakable desires and urges. All the items in the Toilet Paper collection present startling scenes, mixing disturbing normality and troubling ambiguity, stirring feelings of horror combined with a visual pleasure. A work of art in itself, the Toilet Paper collection questions, due to its accessible price and wide distribution, the nature and limits of the contemporary art market. Questions that have always been central to Maurizio Cattelan's work.
I love this piece because it adds a playful, contemporary twist to a functional item. The Toiletpaper mirror with snakes and hands is bold and vibrant, making it perfect for eclectic or modern interiors that thrive on statement pieces. It works particularly well in bathroom schemes that embrace colour and humour or in a quirky hallway that welcomes guests with personality. To style it effectively, consider pairing it with minimal surroundings or neutral tones to let the mirror take centre stage. Also, think about the lighting - a well-placed spotlight or backlighting can enhance its vivid colours and draw attention to its unique design. This is definitely a conversation starter that blends art and practicality seamlessly.
