Symbiotic: “Characterized by, living in, or being a close physical association (as in mutualism or commensalism) between two or more dissimilar organisms” The human figure and the chair live in complete symbiosis. They exchange roles depending on viewers reading. Chair, the human subject of everyday use and its use for other purposes, exceeding the limit of regular, and pushing the rules to a new bizarre level. Chair as a symbol of power, indolence, laziness, but also stability and security. The interplay between the chair and human fi gure question the notion of objectifying and investigate the mutual dependencies of us and the objects we use. The sculpture became a natural center for street performances and invites visitors for interaction
