aaron sterritt woodwork
I mill and split my own wind blown wood so my hand is in the process from tree
to final piece. I take great satisfaction in turning these trees into useful,
valuable timber to be crafted into furniture and sculpture." "My work is created
through persistent experimentation. I have built up a vocabulary of different
techniques in which to shape, mark and colour the wood creating form and
texture." "Inspiration often comes directly through the working process. Ideas
are stumbled upon when sawing the wood or splitting along the grain using
handtools." "At the core of all my work is a relationship between man and the
material I work with. I like to combine and highlight the differences between
nature, humanhand and machine."
