The Line: Yinka Ilori
Types of Happiness is two 10ft high sculptural chairs, highly coloured with a Dutch wax print-like pattern. Designed by British-Nigerian artist Yinka Ilori, they are part of a collection of six chairs, where the artist explores the sixteen different types of happiness, which include pride, strength, excitement, happiness, calmness and determination. Each of the chairs is ascribed a different type, using the same colours, but in different combinations, to impact experience. The two chairs in the Royal Docks represent happiness and pride.
