Uncomfortable Chiars
Exploration
2017

Uncomfortable chairs is an exploration in how furniture could hurt our feelings.

“Dumped” is a chair that lets you relive the feeling of being dumped. You will think you have support, but before you know it you will be sitting on the ground, not knowing what has happened or how you can fix it. “Tipped” helps you remember that you can’t keep it together all the time. You may try your best to balance, but you will tip over the second you take your mind off the task at hand. And “Stabbed” brings to mind all the times you may have been stabbed in the back. The chair looks inviting - but when you plop yourself down, don’t be surprised with the pain you might feel.
