Chip on the Shoulder

1999

Horgenglarus Series

granite stone, beech
H 70 x W 42 x D 46 cm
edition of 6

‘chip on the shoulder’ from the Koeln series, sees the legs sheared away and a rock placed on its seat, maintaining the exact seating height.

In the HorgenGlarus series, this classic chair, a purely functional piece of furniture, is being turned it in to a work with emotional resonance. Through constant reinterpretation, the chair has become an ideal blank canvas for ongoing experimentation’s with its form and materials (such as silicone, slate, rubber, resin), each taking on a new personality.
