Commissioned by Sam Petersen 2024


Sam Petersen commissioned Sculpture Co to create a “wheel chair for the apocalypse”.  Built from light weight materials and taking into account Sam’s specific access requirements the team proceeded to repair Sam’s old chair, design and build the ultimate rig. The re-invented wheel chair is complete with reimagined disabled logos, catheter piss guns, a poo shoot and megaphones.

With a Fuck You attitude, this war chair speaks loudly about ableism in contemporary culture and will be used for upcoming art projects by Sam in the near future.
