This is a project I came up with for my final in Sculpture II. The theme was to create a sight specific sculpture and I decided to build a chair-bookcase for the library of my University in order for students to understand that you can go to the library even when you don't have finals and relax, read a book or just daydream. Because many people got that wrong I need to make clear that I built this chair on my own and that's why the name of this project is dedicated to the number of nails that I screwed with tools (1.285). I think it's important to stress that as a woman it was the first time that I was dealing with "men" tools and I actually did pretty good, even though I was terrified at the beginning. This project became very important to me because of that, and the process of creating this chair kind of taught me that I can do anything if I want to. I hope you enjoy my work and comment for any suggestions or questions.
