Horgenglarus Series

lead
each H 81 x W 42 x D 41 cm
edition of 7

A lead-cast chair has a hole melted through its seat, giving a sombre character to this still piece.

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.
