The objective of this piece was to create an abstracted still life with the use of string.
For this project, Cheslyn and I used black string and attached it to the legs and arms of the chair in order to create the illusion that the chair is floating in midair. We decided to use a black background because it is very contrasting with the silver chair as well as the green string that hangs around it, and also because we didn't want the black string to be seen. The green string was added for a splash of color to the piece, and to keep the composition from being black and white.
