Questioning the waste created by magazines and the temporal nature of them, designer Jens Praet sought to create a more lasting impression with magazines with his line of resin furniture created for his “Fossilized” exhibition at Industry Gallery in Washington, D.C. Each piece of furniture is created from shredded magazines from publications such as Art in America, Capitol File, Details, Fast Company, Robb Report and confidential documents and subsequently mixed with clear resin to create a unique aesthetic. The Jens Praet “Fossilized” Exhibition at Industry Gallery will run until Feb. 26, 2011.
