S1E6: Dinner At Pygmalion’s: Part One

This multifaceted installation began as a desire to repair damaged chairs by adding anatomically correct body parts to the missing or broken parts, ie,. a leg for a leg, arm for an arm, etc. From there it grew into something entirely different. Tune in and find out how.

Aerial view: chairs, torso, glass top, sundial and eye-boxes.

An ear added to the ‘ear’ of the chair; with the old ‘dated’ rhyme about what ‘girls’ —sugar and spice and everything nice — and ‘boys’ — snakes and snails and puppy dog tails — are made of, both engraved into the backrest in order to mimic a ‘pressed back’ chair.

A leg replaces a missing leg on a once discarded chair.
