Annie Evelyn

She utilizes unexpected materials on the surfaces of her furniture, such as artificial flowers, ceramic tile, cement, graphite, and metal.

[citation needed] “Joy, laughter, and the unexpected have always been at the heart of my work,” said Evelyn in an interview with the American Craft Council.

[1] Evelyn's early work was a series of more traditional wood chairs with geometric patterned seats made from seemingly hard materials.

[6] Breaking away from traditional furniture forms, Evelyn created a series of work titled "Static Adornment", wall mounted structures decorated with ornamented materials such as fake roses, metal scales, and beads, would appear as extensions of the body when people physically engage with the artworks.

[7] Between 2008 and 2012, Evelyn, in collaboration with Shaun Bullens, organized a number of furniture performance public events in which artist-built robotic, automated, and remote controlled tables were set to fight in a ring in front of a live audience.
