The One and the Other
At the center of Eugene Ionesco’s play “Chairs” is a couple, perhaps the world’s last couple, in a world of post-civilization survival. Together, they organize a party for a host of invisible guests to elucidate the meaning of life—before jumping to their deaths.
The One in the Other presents a hypothetical stage set for Ionesco’s drama, and explores notions of togetherness and coupledom within a domestic environment, as well as ideas of perception and the elusiveness of shared meaning.
This work was part of a two-person exhibition of the same name with Meredith Sellers, curated by Lord Ludd for Unlisted at Icebox Project Space.
