Transplant installed at Objectspace (Photograph by Peter Deckers)

Here are the finished images of Ben and my collaboration at Objectspace.  The chair I selected and modified using parts from Ben’s chair is the floral print chair entitled Transplant/67503288 and Ben’s chair is the steel and timber stool entitled Transplant/5084110.

When we installed the works we wanted them to seem like the two chairs were having a conversation with each other.  I am pleased with the amount of similarities and contrasts between the two pieces, overall they’re quite different, but there are similarities to create an interaction between the pieces.

I was interested in fixing the missing parts of my chair with materials which were already used and already had a sense of history about them.
