SHREDDED SERIES 3 / HIGH BENCH

- 

ARISING IN REACTION TO THE TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF OFFICE WASTEPAPER, THE SHREDDED SERIES HAS TRANSFORMED INTO A CONCEPTUAL BODY OF WORK THAT RENDERS THE MERE IMAGES OF ART AND FURNITURE INTO CONCRETE, FUNCTIONAL DESIGN. WORKING WITH THE SUPPORT OF ELLE DECOR, PRAET UNDERTAKES A SEVERAL-STEP PROCESS TO MAKE EACH PIECE IN THE SHREDDED SERIES. HE SHREDS THE MAGAZINES, MIXES THE RESULTING POUNDS OF CONFETTI WITH RESIN, PRESSES THAT MIXTURE INTO FURNITURE-SHAPED MOULDS, AND POLISHES THE TOP SURFACES TO PERFECTION. THE FINISHED PIECES HAVE THE FIRMNESS OF WOOD AND A UNIQUE TEXTURE.
