Artist Statement

Creative Director and co-founder of SENTIENT, Nersi Nasseri is a designer whose work bridges sculpture and function. Over a three-decade career, he has collaborated with renowned design houses such as Porsche, Cartier, Fendi, Saks Fifth Avenue, and Movado—shaping a distinct vision recognized globally. A graduate of Pratt Institute with a Master of Industrial Design, Nasseri founded SENTIENT in 2012, establishing its Brooklyn studio and workshop as a space where furniture becomes functional art. Pieces like the Rivulet Table, Wave Chaise Lounge, and Sapience Chair explore organic form, craftsmanship, and restraint. As curator of the SENTIENT Gallery, Nasseri presents works that defy convention—featured in design fairs and galleries across North America, Europe, and the Middle East. His practice continues to shape a poetic, sculptural language in contemporary design.
