Wearing Chairs While Sitting On Pants

What: A synthesis of furniture and clothing to go beyond the original features of each. Why: Furniture and clothing are seen as two separate things. But they don’t have to be. Both facilitate the body in its environment.

How: Evocative sculptures use and juxtapose existing forms, functions and materials, such as leather, that are common to furniture as well as clothing. They present a new hybrid form to excite and intrigue.
