Pineal Lobotomy

2023

Made for “Make-Do” organized by Marta and Catalog Sale, an exhibition of twenty-four historic and contemporary ad-hoc chairs, held in alignment with NYC×Design.

Pineal Lobotomy is constructed with triangular joints capable of receiving 3 linear members. These joints are made from left over steel stands produced for our Third Eye Vessels in 2014, with the stone “third eye” aka pineal gland removed, these joints give the chair its name.

The wood branches were gathered from Bush Terminal park during a tree trimming and the ropes used to weave the seats are left over from our piece for Brooklyn Botanical Garden’s “For the Birds” exhibition.
