About the artwork

Hossein, an Iranian who emigrated to Australia to escape social and political oppression, participated in the first art festival. He joined forces with Angela, an Australian inspired by diverse fields including science, history, and philosophy. The chair, composed of elements from animals, humans, and artifacts, seems to encapsulate our world. The pedestal, newly installed to fit the space of Australia House, bears footprints suggesting human absence.
