Yes, but a chair is practical. I'd say that an artistic chair you can't sit in is no chair at all, but merely a chair shaped object. Most art exhibitions do not allow me to test my theory in practice, so I am left wondering.
This makes no sense. First, it’s ugly as hell.
Second it looks just as labor intensive as a bent wood chair, which would be significantly nicer, more durable, and not break down into micro plastics.
There are some fun thermoforming techniques that use molds to reshape quick-printing flat designs. I've been meaning to try combining the technique with the method where you print onto tissue paper, cloth, or the like. It would make for a great demonstration for kids as you could print and form a flyable plane in a few minutes.
So the kids have a little 3d printer and a projector in their room. One day I found them using the hot exhaust air from the projector to bend their 3d printed trinkets like this. What fun!
