Dirty Chair

Dirty Furniture 1, Allison Maletz, 2007

An armchair is the base for this audio sculpture. The armchair is domestic, used, and out-dated. It looks as though it could be comfortable, but its worn and uncleanly appearance is not particularly inviting. Yet from within the chair a seductive voice asks to be sat on… literally calling in a soft whisper “Sit on me… sit on me…” repeatedly.  This sculpture is about constant need and lack of acknowledgment.”

Allison graduated from the Slade MFA in 2009. Degree Show website.
