Walking with Chair
Ienke Kastelein
‘ZITTEN IS EEN WERKWOORD’ said the famous architect and chair - designer Rietveld > sitting is a verb (in dutch "werkwoord" meaning: sitting is something that
requires "doing", acting ). This performative walk is embedded in the connotation of the dutch “IK ZIT HIER” (I am sitting here) and "ergens zitten, zijn, in de wereld zijn" meaning: "to be (sit) somewhere, to be, to be in - being part of - the world / I AM
HERE. “ZITTEN” (sitting) is related to the verb “ZIJN” = "TO BE"
To choose a place and put a chair to have a seat is an appropriation of the place - making yourself familiar, comfortable, feeling at home. In choosing the position you express and explore a viewpoint - embedding yourself in space.
Walking with a chair is the existential expression of being on the move, searching - being nomad, restless, vagabond; carrying your home, on the way to your destination. In art usually there is a separation between maker, artwork and spectator. This walking performance / performative walk denies this separation.
