Anna Mirkin is not interested in depicting the sober reality of the Monoblocs. She transports the chairs into abstract worlds. Weightless, they float in front of pastel-coloured horizons and appear like the platonic ideal of garden furniture. The Monobloc, as a piece of furniture that is anchored in the collective subconscious, is brought to the surface as an alienated new thing. Henry Massonet's idea of mass production meets an individual and their concrete and personal ideas of what can be.
