Mona Hatoum II

Mona Hatoum often uses furniture in her sculpture and installation work.

"I like to use furniture in my work because it is about everyday life. Some of the objects are vaguely useful, but often they turn into uncanny objects. We usually expect furniture to be about giving support and comfort to the body. If these objects become either unstable or threatening, they become a reference to our fragility." Mona Hatoum
