Using uneven smaller scrap pieces, a common waste stream of upholsters, cladding patterns similar to rusticated stonework begin to form once the pieces are placed together. By sealing the pieces in a coating material, latex paints or waterproofing membranes, the foam is rendered resistant to water, dust and degradation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe monotone created by the enclosing finish vanquishes the differences in the foam's natural \u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003ecolour, allowing the compositions to be reduced to a set of formal relationships.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003eOnce the works get to this point a few meanings start to come through for me. In one way, they look like the fragmented boolean difference'd pieces of a masonry construction: effortless subtractions from places of great weight, like a Gordon Matta-Clark work.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOther times, the relationships of the orthogonal-yet-imprecise blocks in dissonance with one another feels relatable to the hierarchy of priorities we juggle internally in order to pass through life. No one seems to win, but others stand out more than others. Or, most simply, the assemblages are just collages of little spaces we might trace with our eyes while on a phone call or lost in thought.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/i\u003eDesigner: \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/bachlifurniture.com.au\/collections\/charlie-white\"\u003eCharlie White\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eYear: 2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDimensions: \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e26 x 100 x 11 cm `\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eMaterials:\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eFoam, House paint, Pine\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eSigned on back. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOne-of-a-kind original.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Charlie White","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45206556901423,"sku":null,"price":1300.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0554\/5767\/7359\/files\/Cutout_No.4.jpg?v=1776645209","url":"https:\/\/bachlifurniture.com.au\/products\/cut-out-4","provider":"Bachli Furniture","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
