Chris Wolston designed and sculpted a series of 21 original works that explore materiality and abstraction through pieces of furniture. The fantasy-themed collection is currently on view at Casa Perfect in Los Angeles. The artist explores his unique style with fiber materials to weave anthropomorphic silhouettes.
The range of furniture cultures includes chairs, tables, lungers, and other abstracted pieces. Temperature's Rising takes inspiration from various sources such as the Andes Mountains in Western Columbia and Spanish modernism. Wolston uses human elements to reframe the viewer's perspective of furniture to give a sense of familiarity to his pieces. The artist is "fascinated by the large-scale, gestural patterns that make up our world," as he expresses through his furniture.
