TBWA/Chiat/Day Locker Door Wall Relief ("Key Boot") by Gaetano Pesce

A boot and a key appear in raised relief on this vibrant panel by Gaetano Pesce, arranged in a vertical rhythm. This piece plays on work-place themes and vibrant yet simplistic iconography.

These sculptural panels were locker doors for employees at TBWA/Chiat/Day’s New York office in 1994. With no assigned desks or offices, employees stored their belongings in these vibrant, acrylic painted lockers—each one entirely unique. The panels embodied Gaetano Pesce’s belief in diversity and imperfection, turning everyday storage into a bold statement of individuality within a fluid, paperless workplace.
