An eternal amorphous space where you must think about drawing and painting in the broadest sense, and where you can sit down.
A horrifying, hopeful and unknown landscape opened in front of me from the window. The lobby’s promise of a future, the idea of a chair.
The kind of uncertainty I felt could not be found in the structures where I lived. A feeling may remain unchanged for weeks in a refrigerator.
Chair and Trap is an installation consisting of paintings and sculptural objects.
