Brisbane in Design 2008 - The Egg chair
The Egg 1958 - 2008
50 years ago Arne Jacobsen designed the egg chair for a hotel in Denmark, it quickly became an internation icon and a favourite for interior designers the world over. To commemorate the 50th aniversay of the Egg chair Fritz Hansen, the original maker of the chair, devised a travelling exhibition of 50 Egg chairs in a different approach.
Tal R, a danish artist has created 50 chairs with a patchwork of different materials scourced and salvaged from around the world. The colourful designs are made up of a variety of materials from childrens textiles to denim and corduroy. Materials are taken from around the world and are as diverse as material from a girls dress to old discarded curtains.
The term 'Egg' has inspired the artist with ideas of fertility and his fascination with Sigmund Freud. Each chair has been named with links to the writings of Freud.
An exhibition of the 50 charis currently touring the world, is visting Brisbane as a part of Brisbane in Design before continuing on to Tokyo and New York before returning to Denmark.
The following is a few images taken during the open of the event, including some sefl indulgent images of my favourite parts including the chair entitled Moses and a detail of a 'Smurf' from Peyo's famous belgian cartoon

pages from a sketchbook
Thought i would post a few scans of some very rough sketches from the sketchbook. Hopefully these little cartoons will be cleaned up a bit by myself oneday and drawn properly. Its bascilly random thoughts that bounce into my head at various times of the day and then insist to be drawn out in comic form...
