Description 

Carved from sustainably sourced oak, this disc features an off-centre knot that gives the form a subtle tilt. A dark iron oxide finish is accented with a light brushed cross of local chalk pigment, creating a gently textured surface with a warm, almost golden hue. With both painterly and sculptural qualities, the piece can be exhibited on a wall or placed on a surface.

About the Artist 

Glenn Dane works in Cambridgeshire, creating vessels and sculptural forms from locally and sustainably sourced wood. Using freshly cut green timber, he allows natural movement and distortion to shape each piece, preserving knots, fissures and grain as traces of growth. Cracks are stitched as acts of care, and surfaces are finished with hand-made dyes and pigments from foraged plants, seeds and earth. The works exist as abstract, three-dimensional landscapes that reimagine the countryside through form and colour.
