Wood Work

Tactile Aesthetics

 

Ever since I was small I loved to pick things up and fiddle with them.  I'm a very tactile person and I like the feel new textures. I can remember going to galleries and not being able to fully experience sculptures because I couldn't touch them. I wanted to change this with my own work, so for this work I went about creating a sculpture so aesthetically tactile that I couldn't help but feel it. These sculptures are carved in beech and oak.
