Continuing and concluding the small series of lesser known but yet interesting sculptural works employing Monobloc plastic chairs one way or the other, here comes “Plastic Mountain”, Los Angeles based artist Dana Maiden made in 2008. At first glance – and in the image above – it looks very inconspicuous: Just a pile of plastic chairs.

Grasping the whole scene often requires a change of position though, and applying that strategy to Maiden“s work, we are awarded with an altogether different, very original impression that I would love to experience in three-dimensional real life:

i.e. In simple & plain straightforward words: Great work, thank you!
