chair incorporates buddhist ideals found in yoga through structural theory, designed and realized by myself and laura pellow as one uses the chair to move inwards spiritually, the grooves, already inset, grow outwards and more warn as the chair becomes one with the yogi there are three postures that the chair invokes; one is for the newcomer two is for the more advanced three is for the yogi one progresses through the postures as they become more advanced in their practice
