Made from post-industrial PP #5 and recycled PETG #1 plastics. During my time as artist-in-residence (M4 Factory, in Woodstock, IL) I brought a large incomplete 3D print from my studio and some school chair legs donated to me from one of my plastic donors.







I filled the cavity of the incomplete 3D print and spilled the plastic out from the top radiating down and around the chair legs until they were totally engulfed and the piece became structurally sound. The result, a dense stool that is built like a tank :)
