Project overview

Two people are supported by one stool, and they are touching, so the support cannot be taken away from one without breaking the other. Whatever replaces it has to carry both at the same height.

Transformation details

A vine swing was built at the stool's exact seat height, so neither figure moves and the contact between them is untouched.
The stool was removed and the overlap between the two bodies rebuilt where it had crossed the frame.
The jungle was placed with a bright opening behind the heads for separation, and haze added between the middle and far planes.
Green bounce light was added to the undersides of both figures so they sit inside the forest rather than in front of it.
