Why Couches?
There are a few reasons for love seats, chairs and sofas settings, the contradiction of their presence in unordinary circumstances, their symbol of relaxation, and one that is more personal to me……….
When I was near the end of my extensive traveling, I had said that once I found a place, ‘ that place', where I was comfortable and stable, I would buy a beautiful, comfortable couch – this was a symbol of home, relaxing, releasing of insecurities and being yourself.
As of today, I have yet to buy that couch.
I realized that the representation I had bestowed on this particular home furnishing, were actually the traits that I searched for in myself no matter where I was, or what I was doing.
I had given these values to an inanimate object and held them as the symbolism of what I searched for in me. |
