Bastard Chairs


“The hybrid, vernacular seats seen in Hong Kong’s backstreets and in mainland China are known as ‘Bastard Chairs’. These improvised seats have been assembled and repaired by local residents using whatever materials were available. There are plastic backs grafted onto wooden stools, and metal legs bolted into mismatched frames.
German photojournalist Michael Wolf (1954-2019) spotted them.”
