Rift
Original artwork
Rift is the final work in a series of three sculptures exploring the transformation of discarded materials into objects of permanence and significance. Carving, scorching and staining expose the timber’s fibres, marks and imperfections, while fire actively shapes and reveals its surface. The introduction of steel creates a sense of contrast and tension, while giving the work an added element of strength and permanence. The series is made entirely from unwanted offcuts of solid UK hardwoods. By elevating discarded timber into carefully considered works, I hope to encourage a deeper appreciation of both the material and the stories it carries.

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.
