23.11.08 Day Off - The Blue Chair


This is the ironing area of the house where we all had a go at ironing without a steam iron - I was pretty rubbish at it, as the clothes were always too dry!

This chair however caught my eye as being somewhat beautiful in this context and akin to the blues that other European artists used in their works (Matisse, Yves Klein, Anish Kapoor) and has been a significant pigment used in the religious paintings of the Renaissance.

This place was often a chatting point at night, although you had to be weary of the mosquitos! Fond memories!
