Rewilding the Domestic

This work imagines rewilding within the spaces we consider most controlled and comfortable. Delicate porcelain mushrooms grow from a familiar armchair, suggesting that nature never fully retreats — it waits quietly beneath our habits and objects, ready to return. The piece transforms domestic space into living habitat, revealing how renewal can begin in the places we least expect.

By reclaiming and reimagining a discarded vintage chair, the work speaks to the quiet dignity of objects that have survived time and use. Instead of being forgotten, the armchair becomes a collaborator — a vessel for new stories, new growth, new purpose. Rewilding the Domestic proposes that restoration is not only ecological but personal: when we tend to what we already have, we rediscover value, memory, and possibility.

In giving new life to something worn and overlooked, the piece invites us to shift how we relate to the things we keep — to see them as living carriers of our attention, capable of transformation when we choose care over replacement.
