Bench. A Modest Enquiry Into The Nature Of Witchcraft
Handmade in Chicago, Illinois by Dilettante Studios
As seen in The Relative Appetite of Hungry Ghosts, John Preus' solo show at the Rhona Hoffman Gallery in Chicago in 2016. Made from materials salvaged form the closed Chicago Public schools. The meandering bench takes up a footprint of roughly 13 feet by 4 feet, and is imagined as a bench for a waiting room, a sitting area in lobby, or museum. It could also compliment a large living room space.

Dilettante Studios
Dilettante Studios (DS) is a small, full-service design/build studio specializing in hand-crafted furniture, cabinets, carpentry, built-ins, environments, installations and art fabrication, using primarily found, inherited, re-purposed and salvaged materials. We also work with virgin materials when necessary, but do our best to go second-hand whenever possible, as both a principle and an invited opportunity for adaptive design. We hope you will work with us for our expertise as much as our commitments to waste reduction and creativity.
