The Chairs

The Chairs is a body of work that focuses on representing our fragile and fragmented human condition. Through a slicing of the chairs with the transformative Fresnel lenses (recovered from discarded TV sets), the work becomes a commentary on impeded human movement and functionality. The screens cut the chairs into separate planes and distort their form, while their shapes are merging in a visual effect of a loss of gravity and elevated sense of displacement. The magnification of the lenses stretches the image and alters sensory perception, fluctuating between abstract and figurative, materiality and illusion.
