Seated Thoughts

Lyris transforms rescued furniture into canvases that journal her musings. Each piece of furniture is a unique piece of colour and organic forms communicating Lyris' love of nature and the smaller things in life. The furniture abounds with flowers and moons as well as insects, fungi and poetry waiting to be discovered. Lyris' furniture journey began with a decision to give a discarded kitchen chair a new life. Lyris is a furniture artist emerging from a life as a microbial ecologist and lecturing in biology.
