“ This chair is inspired by my ‘Mouvinon’ 2011 piece. When the backrest for this one was found to include the tree root, it made possible a small table at one end.”
Jon Brooks ‘Chairoscuro’ maple, acrylic, stain, varnish 30" deep x 52" wide x 35" high Locally harvested tree sections from the forests surrounding my studio are configured in sculptural form as a collaboration with nature. I select maple for its strength, durability, light weight and color. The naturally formed shapes are carefully selected and joined to create a dance of seven legs painted and incised with my hieroglyphic carvings. The yellow contrasting seat and backrest are configured for maximum comfort. Please be seated.
