Robert Therrien has created some pretty amazing oversized furniture for an art exhibit. The pieces featured gigantic fold-up chairs, huge dinner plates and bowls and even a full dining room furniture set, equipped with four chairs and a massive table.
The furniture is truly amazing, looking like it came out of a giant’s home. Not only that, but it makes people look absurdly small standing next to it. Robert Therrien is a pretty incredible artist to come up with these insanely large art installations.
