Essence 20 represents a considered approach to sculptural practice, utilising peach wood reclaimed from a fallen tree in Porirua.
The artist has preserved the timber's organic character through careful finishing with oil and wax, revealing the depth and complexity of the grain. Measuring 280mm in height and 160mm in width, this work embodies principles of material sustainability and craft integrity. Each piece carries the history of its source material, transformed through skilled intervention into a refined sculptural object that invites close examination and contemplation.
