Description
“Can you squeeze a chair out of a machine, the way you squeeze toothpaste out of a tube?” THOMAS HEATHERWICK The present bench is the third extrusion by Thomas Heatherwick from a single billet of aluminum. Forced through a large die, the aluminum was cut into unique, unrepeatable sections and hand-polished. Waste from “Billet 7” was recycled for future extrusions. Heatherwick conceived his “Extrusion” benches over a twelve-year period dating from his coursework at the Royal College of Art, London. He had intended to create lengthy seating for public spaces such as airports and stations. The process of creating his “Extrusions” implies infinity. As Heatherwick states, he could in theory produce a work that “reached around the planet to wherever it needed to go.”
