Fracture

Original artwork

Fracture is the second of three sculptural works exploring the transformation of discarded timber into objects with a lasting presence. Carving, scorching and staining reveal and intensify the timber’s fibres, marks and imperfections. Fire plays an active role in shaping the surface, responding to the material and making its history more visible. The contrast between finely finished oak and raw, scorched surfaces echoes timber's dual identity—as both a living material and a resource shaped by human intervention. The resulting forms evoke weathered landscapes, geological strata, and fossilised surfaces.

Materials – Walnut & Scorched English Oak
Dimensions – 360mm wide x 1460mm high x 80mm deep.

We are able to deliver our items to the UK and overseas. Shipping costs are not included in the price of our artwork but calculated once we know where and how it's best to get the item to you. We often hand deliver to ensure safe arrival, however shipping crating is available.
Our finishes are naturally robust and offer great resistance to spillages, provided they’re wiped up promptly with a damp cloth. For tougher marks, we recommend Osmo spray cleaner, and an annual application of liquid wax cleaner to keep the wood finish looking its best. We also offer a refinishing service, available by quotation, depending on the work needed, refinishing can be done on-site or in our workshop.
