THE rocking chair

The Rocking Chair is a site-specific intervention born from a shared ritual—gathering at dawn and dusk to witness the rhythms of the sky. In response to the question, “In this elemental and delicate ecosystem, what does the minimal shelter look like here, in this place, for this moment?”. A subtle, transportable structure that cradles the human body. It’s meant to be placed on any rock, at any time, offering a moment of stillness and protection from the arid expanse of the Karoo. The object responds to the distinctive rock formations of the site, adapting to their contours and becoming part of the landscape.

Crafted from Mesquite (Prosopis glandulosa)—an invasive species, the piece transforms this rough material through intricate weaving into one of softness and gentleness. The Rocking Chair becomes an ephemeral threshold, framing a moment between body, land, and sky.
