“Sandblasting sequoia shows how soft summer growth erodes at a different rate to its harder winter counterpart. The ridged and recessed results mirror the wood’s growth between seasons: summer-fast winter-slow. They are etched by time-grown and time-worn materiality. Cycles of organic growth and formal exploration recall one of civilization’s oldest object forms. Each vessel finds itself articulated in novel form shaped unlike its predecessors yet still spurred on by memory’s haptic suggestion.”
– Eleanor Lakelin on this piece created for the Making Memories exhibition
