Long Table

Long table is an object first shown at New Work, a solo exhibition by Muller Van Severen back in 2014. Although the exhibition mainly consisted of glossy lacquer surfaces, Muller Van Severen presented three polyethylene tables on the side, mounted on rusted steel and red lacquered steel threshes. Together with ‘low table’ and ‘round table’, this ‘long table ’ shows the continuation of Muller Van Severen’s fascination for the material polyethylene. It is a soft and tactile plastic, when cut through, the texture of the material really comes forward. It is all handwork done in Belgium.
