“I am interested in taking apart the structural logic of social and political systems. This process is reflected in my relationship to forms as carriers of meaning and potential. For this project I looked at various curves and forms that are the fundamental basis of Thonet's iconic furniture over the last century and more. I wanted to bring forward the beauty and significance of these isolated elements that are both structural and relational.” – Liam Gillick
