New Work
I have come across many variations a shopping cart chair. Those works do not move me. I have seen many images thought out time of people riding in, sitting in and steeling shopping carts. It seems to me that a shopping cart chair is old hat.
When re-purposing something and changing it's function, I find that it is most effective when the re-purposed object is taken out of its original context. Changing it in to something that makes you stop and look at it.
The grill was on the back porch when I moved in, it only had two legs and where the third was supposed to be it was propped up on a wicker chair. Already having my own grill that was in much better shape I left it out there, knowing that I would find a use for it later, Then one night I thought a chair. Now that is something that you don't see every day a grill used as a chair.
