The Chairs
Giving life to an object, finding its personality traits, highlighting what makes it definable. We constantly project the image of an object on us to feel elegant, soberly or playful. On short, to be in the same way that object is. My project takes the chairs and transforms them into people, showing my vision about each of them. There shouldn't be the question why, this series is an experience, mine and viewer's. It doesn't answer to a question, it shows a way of looking at a fact: that we choose objects to feel in a certain way.
This project begun when I was trying to document an upholstery and to take a portrait with the owner. While scouting the place, I saw several old chairs staked in a basement. A white chairs with a broken arm made me think of an old elegant lady with a broken arm and from this I took all the chairs out and gave them life again.
