Bench Press




Plywood, hardware, NYC busses, and NYC bus stops
October 14th 2011 4AM to 9PM

Bench Press took place along the Q39 and B57 MTA bus routes using Flux Factory in Long Island City (Queens) and Momenta Art in Bushwick (Brooklyn) as anchor points. Between the two, lay a vast range of industrial parks and neighborhood enclaves where little to no seating can be found at the adjoining bus stops. BroLab fabricated a series of portable commuter benches that can be broke down into manageable bundles. These benches were then assembled and disassembled at bus stops to provide temporary seating for the public.
