standards and oddballs
a selection of chairs, old to new, wood and metal. one from before I ever conceived of making furniture, a couple early works in strand board, and a couple later works, one in zip system, one in steel, maybe two in steel.
the first from 1996, the last from 2026.
a couple quilts and some textile odds and ends.
surrounding the quilts there’s always scraps and smaller pieces, like sketches, sometimes they’re the pieces I hold onto most, there’s something less defined in them, more room for possibilities of what might come next. Some other relics, not made by me, that relate to my textile work, something from my grandmother, something from my childhood.
I’d like it to feel personal, personally historical, show the overlap between themes and materials and process, a little bit messy.

Chris Rucker (b. 1972, lives and works New York, NY), a New York-based artist and designer since 1996, has developed a distinctive approach to furniture design that aligns with postmodern critiques of authenticity and materiality. His work prominently features materials such as Oriented Strand Board (OSB) and moving blankets—substances typically used as substitutes for more traditional or “authentic” materials. By repurposing these industrial materials, Rucker challenges conventional distinctions between the genuine and the simulated, a concept central to postmodern discourse.

The Instagram Story Viewer is an easy tool that lets you secretly watch and save Instagram stories, videos, photos, or IGTV. With this service, you can download content and enjoy it offline whenever you like. If you find something interesting on Instagram that you’d like to check out later or want to view stories while staying anonymous, our Viewer is perfect for you. Anonstories offers an excellent solution for keeping your identity hidden. Instagram first launched the Stories feature in August 2023, which was quickly adopted by other platforms due to its engaging, time-sensitive format. Stories let users share quick updates, whether photos, videos, or selfies, enhanced with text, emojis, or filters, and are visible for only 24 hours. This limited time frame creates high engagement compared to regular posts. In today’s world, Stories are one of the most popular ways to connect and communicate on social media. However, when you view a Story, the creator can see your name in their viewer list, which may be a privacy concern. What if you wish to browse Stories without being noticed? Here’s where Anonstories becomes useful. It allows you to watch public Instagram content without revealing your identity. Simply enter the username of the profile you’re curious about, and the tool will display their latest Stories. Features of Anonstories Viewer: - Anonymous Browsing: Watch Stories without showing up on the viewer list. - No Account Needed: View public content without signing up for an Instagram account. - Content Download: Save any Stories content directly to your device for offline use. - View Highlights: Access Instagram Highlights, even beyond the 24-hour window. - Repost Monitoring: Track the reposts or engagement levels on Stories for personal profiles. Limitations: - This tool works only with public accounts; private accounts remain inaccessible. Benefits: - Privacy-Friendly: Watch any Instagram content without being noticed. - Simple and Easy: No app installation or registration required. - Exclusive Tools: Download and manage content in ways Instagram doesn’t offer.
