Description 

A wide cup on a solid foot, with organic markings from iron oxide and local chalk pigments revealing the artist’s hand. A dry finish layers pale pigment over the dark wood, creating subtle variation across the surface in both tone and texture. Greys, whites and browns meet over an almost galactic surface pattern. A minimal silhouette with endless intricacies among its 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.
