Duet two interdependent voices. In all its simplicity, the design involves two identical elements, which together make a stable and credible whole, while standing alone looses both function and meaning. The central element of the stool is the gap, the opennes of the meeting between the individual, where balance is created between the forces at play. Inspiration for this piece of furniture is the necessary global solidarity. The stool is done in ash with handcut tenons and slits; the two items are held together by three steel clamps.- Walk the Plank II, 2003/Planken ud |

Walk the Plank II, 2003/Planken ud.- Apple – A stool." Since Eve we have, all of us, lusted for a bite of the apple! No one has held back! But the apple is much else. It has great sculptural beauty! It is a pleasure to look at! And perhaps it may give us a little of its tranquility? That is, if one can find some sufficiently competent craftsmen, who are able to such a degree to dare poach on the preserves of our Lord, and take his apple, and – for once not take a bite off it – but recreate it as a stool to sit on ! |
