Description
Crafted from a recently felled large deadstanding Oak sourced from the ancient woodland we work with in West Sussex, Lascivia Astus is a mischievous play on antiquity in an unexpected medium. Each of the five vessels are intricately hewn from a single block of Oak, a dance of archetypical form from one piece to the next drawing on historical design to tell a contemporary narrative. The works feature a charred, eroded and burnished patina with a multitude of rugged natural fissures that have been secured with light touches of hand stitched waxed cotton thread. A celebration of the raw beauty of imperfection juxtaposed with intricate and ancient form.Join our mailing list
