Description 

Made from sustainably sourced oak, this warped disc is shaped by the natural drying of the wood, allowing the form to gently distort over time. Finished with local botanical dyes and earth pigments, the surface has a dry, textured finish. Visible stitched knots mark points of repair, leaving traces of the maker’s hand. 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.
