Ancestors Chair

This lovely chair was purchased through money from my great aunt Carolines estate. Dad had been willed a certain amount and passed some of it on to Simmone and I. I wanted something that would remind me of handing over and passing down the generations on daily basis. Hence the chair. For me a chair is a holding and comforting space, not unlike the womb. The shape colour and texture just adds to this idea as well as the silver legs that support it. Silver=purity for me. When I come home from work now I drop everything I'm carrying and sit in this chair with my eyes closed. Its going to be my ritual for as long as my chair is available to me. Honoring the ancestors. I love reading drawing and playing my recorder in it and for some reason (Ill have to check the feng shui book) it seems to be in the right spot. My plan is to crochet a knee rug that will tye in the colours of my couch (beige) that I will drape on the chair and make some burgandy cushions for my couch to link them together.
