Traces

Collection of 5 objects made from fresh/wet oak wood. Various sizes, from 60 x 100 x 600mm up to 160 x 500 x 1300mm. May 2025. Traces breaks with traditional carpentry rules and so-called industry standards, shifting the perspective from wood as a material or resource toward living matter. The objects still recall the functional interiors they try to break away from—chair, side table, or shelf. Yet as moisture and grain are treated differently, they become heavy, unpredictable, and pointed, confronting the user with their own agency.
