2008 - 2007
For the last thirty years we have heard about the recycling of waste... Waste is usually strongly linked with pollution and to often the term waste implies things which have been used inefficiently or inappropriately. So how can we make this abstract concept a reality?
Shocked by the enormous office waste and amount of shredded documents, studio Jens Praet started to react to this issue by reusing those documents and to transform them into a useful object with a new dignity.
One Day Paper Waste is a little cabinet. Obtained by taking shredded confidential document, mixing them with resin and compressing them into a strong mould... End result: a new interesting object that has the strength of wood.
Materials:
Shredded documents, resin, aluminum
Dimensions:
Cabinet / 700 x 400 x 400 mm (h x w x d)
Production:
2008-2007, studio Jens Praet
