About 30 years ago, I was gifted a beautiful vintage chair that once belonged to my great-grandmother. It had soft floral upholstery and so much character. Recently, my mom asked me where that chair ended up... and I drew a blank. Crickets. After a few sleepless nights and a guilty heart, I think I may have passed it along to my sister.
That moment stayed with me. The nostalgia, the attachment to objects we once loved, and the ever-present pull of the ocean—all of it collided and sparked the creation of this series. Thanks to the beauty of AI, I was able to recreate not just the chair—but the emotion, the memories, the beach, and yes—even the guilt.
This one’s for anyone who’s ever loved a chair, a story, or a memory that got away (and guilt)
