MICA CHAIR
FOUND MINERALS SERIES (“MICA CHAIR”)
SCULPTURE
“Mica’s Chair” is a STEEL frame clad with sheets of opalized MICA and adorned with a metallic leather seat. Signed by the designer in a sense, the construction relies on a kind of design-through technique not dissimilar to John Cage’s “writings-through.” The result is a frottage of designs by Le Corbusier, Noguchi, and Max Ernst. It stands in its own right as a traditional chair, while simultaneously musing on its uncertain future. And as it tends to shed flakes of mica, it imitates “the clutter of the unkempt forest.”
