I just love photographing empty chairs; empty chairs evoke emptiness and film enhances that feeling. I would imagine the chair to be lonely, waiting for someone to use it. Or maybe the chair was once loved by its owner, but it has served its purpose and thus discarded or chucked somewhere where it clearly doesn’t belong to. A lonely chair can also evoke fear, as often being portrayed in horror films.
The chairs above were photographed when I was casually roaming on the streets of Singapore and South Korea. Will this be the only ‘Empty Chairs’ series? I doubt so because I have a slight obsession with them (my friends can vouch for me).
I will upload more of them so if you are interested, do check them out over at Empty Chairs!
