Moving chair and table by Ezri Tarazi

‘the ‘moving’ installation is composed of a sofa, an armchair, a footstool, a table, a mirror, a bookcase, a bed,
a small cupboard and a lamp. the shapes and the materials (plywood and solid pine) of the crates that housed

the armchair, and the bed. the rest become bookshelves, the cupboard, and the lighting fixture.
the inside of one case is an upholstered two-seater couch; the other side becomes the armchair.’
