CHAIR 05-??






The answers to some fundamental human tasks lie with furniture: to hold above the ground, to provide rest, to support weight, to define space and place. Chairs perhaps have the most obvious, most often connection to the human body. But it's also true that most of a chair's life is spent not being sat-on. It sits empty, it holds our jackets or plants, it's covered in plastic wrap to protect it from being sat-on. So then the question is, why do we still call it a chair? I believe it has something to do with memory, with perception, with what it means to be human, and I'm interested in exploring that in furniture.
