This here is exactly why I'll never be an artist. I mean, who looks at a potato and says to themselves, "I'm going to make a Potato Chair today." Only a true artist would state such a thing, and then actually follow up on it.
Designed by Gert Eussen, the Potato Chair lives only in miniature models for now; however, they are simply models for the real-life Potato Chair that you may find yourself occupying in the near future.
