Two Persons’ Armchair (2021)

The mother is the first chair that supports your body in this life. I rethink motherhood or myself as the mother of the future family while making the chair. I built this chair out of sheet metal. Metal is hot but cold, dangerous but robust, rigid but bendy. The dualities of metal share the idea of motherhood. This chair is about the uncertain reliability between the mother and children.

This chair is designed for two people's use. The first user can sit on the higher back seat, and the second user can sit on the lower front seat. The first user's leg can be used as the chair arm of the second person.

This thin metal chair changes its form, responding to the users' weights. The unstable form gives the users vulnerability to their physical existence. By experiencing the chair, we can think about the assistance of oblivious objects supporting our body in their daily lives moreover restates the relationship between two users.
