This work is a large, divided sculpture generated through an AI data rendering of 70,000 3D chairs from the internet.

Without giving any instruction of its function, i.e., '(the ability) to be sat on' or '(be) freestanding', the AI is taught only the visual qualities of a chair, which allows it to form a new object, free of any preconceptions and biases. The chair is monstrously large and placed as if it would penetrate through the space. Analogous to stone monuments, the work reveals a space whereby generalised conceptions of utilitarian objects are subverted.
