Pop Quiz:
You're at Timo's Coffeehouse, sitting alone in the tiny front-window alcove. You're deep into daydreaming, cogitating, contemplating, and/or generally zoning out, when these really great, wooden chairs begin to . . . *speak* to you. Wha'd'ya do?
A. You *speak* back, engaging in animated debate until experiencing a total psychotic break.
B. You ignore them. Everyone knows that talking to chairs is like conversing with a bump on a log.
C. You shove most of the furniture to the very back of the room ("Out of my way, tables!") leaving one table and two very expressive chairs front and center. Then, spend 30 or 40 minutes kneeling on a concrete floor while you, and your ubiquitous Canon, put these unsuspecting pieces through their photographic paces.
(Hey, how hard should a Pop Quiz be?)

Hi, guys! This is a "hit & run" post; I have a show coming up in one week and I'm w-a-y busy (not to mention, hopelessly disorganized).
Have an amazing weekend!
My answer is "A". This is why I'm not allowed back in Starbuck's.
ReplyDeleteHave a great show and a great weekend, too:)
I think I used to own those chairs but they never talked and I never took thir picture. I wonder why?
ReplyDeleteHaaa W.J. I didn't even have to think hard to know the answer has to be 'C' and I can't wait to see you make those chairs come alive when you post the photos of them! A huge congrats on your upcoming show!
ReplyDeleteVery funny quiz! I actually think your answer was all 3...all inner dialog. I like the 1st image a lot.
ReplyDeleteI love this series. What a great statement.
ReplyDeleteI really like these, the first one and especially the fuscia one (third down), very pop art and COOL.
