Suspended Forest

“If these pieces can help us, as human beings, fall in love with nature again, we consider the work a great success. The Suspended Forest is a tribute to the trees and our ecosystem, but at the same time a reminder of its fragility.”

Traditionally, oak is the most sturdy of woods. In the case of SUSPENDED FOREST, fumed oak has been boiled until completely soft, and then torn to flexible threads. In a dried state, the threads are carefully glued together in the well-known shape of the tree trunk. The character of the oak is completely transformed.
