I use a vintage metal chair as a loom to weave recycled cloth and abandoned objects into the mesh seat and rear back. A variety of colored fabrics create interesting scenery as the chair integrates into a forest. This decorative recycled clothes and objects worn by the artificial chair replicate human and nature coexisting.
Capitalism prioritizes the economy over all else. I express the necessity for a sustainable society through reusing these discarded materials. Through this assemblage chair, which no longer functions as a chair, I call into question the objects we consider necessary.
I During the time of quarantine, we must stockpile food for our families and especially our children. I appreciate that grocery store employees disinfect frequently, and this piece represents my gratitude towards them. Food is a significant commodity, especially nowadays.
