For this project I'm keeping it personal (which seems to be a formula that kinda works for me) so I've been looking at the influencing men of my life: my Grandad, Dad and brother. At first I was looking at creating 3 chairs that represent them, as within our house they have all had/have chairs that were theirs, a static place that they always seemed to be. Where- as I'm more restless and don't have one spot in the house. However from working on it and researching I've decided that I'm making my own chair. Taking my place, although not just in the house, the chair for me can fold away, portable, implying that I cam be restless, move or even leave.
However I'm going to have 3 portraits of them hanging above the chair (when it is set up as an installation) that will have red string tying them to the chairs, to symbolise family ties, that family shouldn't hold you back.
