The wood arrives already divided, marked by time and natural disruption. Rather than correcting or concealing this, the work engages it directly. The hand-cut butterfly joints act as deliberate interventions. They do not erase the break, nor do they attempt to restore an illusion of wholeness. Instead, they hold the material in place—an act of restraint that is both structural and human. In this way, the piece reflects a broader condition: a world that feels increasingly divided and unstable, where fractures are visible and unresolved. Yet within that condition, there remains the presence of human effort—the instinct to stabilize, to repair, to hold things together even when resolution is out of reach. What emerges is a quiet form of optimism. Not rooted in perfection or unity, but in persistence. The work suggests that while division may endure, so too does the capacity for care, intention, and intervention. For a collector, it offers more than an object—it holds a sustained dialogue between fracture and repair, where the mark of the human hand becomes the point of possibility. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6470ea6cf3511e543622a45d/ab20b7c6-e36a-441c-a0cb-e84f5a5d2522/IMG_0003.JPG main - B u i l d s walnut bench, fabric seat https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6470ea6cf3511e543622a45d/d01cc8fd-9c94-4ede-9397-957f8741bbea/IMG_4677.JPG main - B u i l d s jatoba and poplar entry table https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6470ea6cf3511e543622a45d/c5b2e4d9-27da-4d2b-b4fd-ca363f2ec483/IMG_1182.PNG main - B u i l d s Diminishing Structure emerged through a process of reduction rather than addition. The act of controlled burning was not applied as decoration, but as a means of subtracting visual and structural certainty from an otherwise stable form. As the work developed, the gesture began to extend beyond the object itself. The gradual darkening at the base suggests a quiet destabilization—where what should ground the structure instead recedes. The work does not depict collapse, but a sustained state of tension. It reflects a condition where stability persists, but only just—held in place while simultaneously being undone. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6470ea6cf3511e543622a45d/24a50716-955b-49cc-9750-7692d7fe6873/IMG_3228.jpg main - B u i l d s https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6470ea6cf3511e543622a45d/24a50716-955b-49cc-9750-7692d7fe6873/IMG_3228.jpg main - B u i l d s https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6470ea6cf3511e543622a45d/b9fa84e6-512f-4a61-be1f-0b0896071ed5/ChatGPT+Image+Apr+20%2C+2026%2C+11_27_54+AM.png main - B u i l d s https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6470ea6cf3511e543622a45d/d01cc8fd-9c94-4ede-9397-957f8741bbea/IMG_4677.JPG main - B u i l d s jatoba and poplar entry table https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6470ea6cf3511e543622a45d/6f8c7594-6a6b-42ca-a2b4-5fcb426c4507/IMG_8865.jpg main - B u i l d s https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6470ea6cf3511e543622a45d/09f47103-c99f-403d-843d-7d101ce4f9dd/ChatGPT+Image+Apr+20%2C+2026%2C+11_54_16+AM.png main - B u i l d s Constructed from Acadian larch, this work retains faint channels left by ants that once inhabited the material—quiet evidence of its past. These markings are not removed, but integrated, giving the surface a layered presence. The form is reduced and deliberate, aligning with a Scandinavian approach to design: minimal, functional, and grounded in material truth. Within this restraint, the piece finds balance—between precision and irregularity, human intervention and natural process https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6470ea6cf3511e543622a45d/6f8c7594-6a6b-42ca-a2b4-5fcb426c4507/IMG_8865.jpg main -
