ArtMichael Samuels: Childstar

Michael Samuels' exhibition at Bloomsbury's Rokeby precedes this year's Jerwood Contemporary Painters tour, for which the artist has been nominated. Taking an experimental approach to the idea of flat-pack furniture, Samuels constructs fantastical, furniture-based sculptures with no practical use whatsoever. Table legs are carefully balanced atop kitchen tables that have been reassembled according to primary-colour coding, conjuring hybrid monuments to an imaginary, post-Ikea utopia. Meanwhile, salvaged desk lamps spotlight humble items of domestic leisure, celebrating their form and colour. [Info Source]
