WEATHERED WOOD
A drifting life of Creations : This project is composed of a series of work that exposes the natural characteristics of neglected wood laying around our shorelines. The process starts with collecting which is the main reason, due to the memories made at that moment,for creating these pictures. So the collection process purposely gives value to an object for whatever desirable means you make it. this can be a discovery in itself-with all kind of objects made special due to you! Was this a moment not to forget what was just remembered. You may interpret these in many ways, but the way I see it- these pieces have already made themselves once removed from there space & saved they are complete. All wood is first dried, cleaned, treated, then sorted ready for display. Now their original bodies are selected for placement in a manner that enhances their relationship to each other, sometimes modeling oneself for show. It is very satisfying to compose & portray them in a way never seen. Do to all of natures elements understanding the transformation of these pieces to a specific form is unique but not apparent until found & viewed. Please enjoy it your way !!! Paul
