This Arts and Crafts style dresser was hand made for a couple in the Ceiriog Valley. The making of it comprised many different tools and processes. I became interested in the Arts and Crafts after researching the life and work of William Morris (1834 - 1894) His utopian vision was one centred around craftsmanship, the arts and an appreciation for nature. If this dresser could express anything I would hope it would speak of this ideal for a fairer more holistic society.
The dresser is made from ash and oak with traditional joinery used throughout the construction. I was exploring the idea of honesty in a material object

This is the 1.2m Seed of Life table in its new home. It is a larger version than the first, inspired by the work of David Colwell and Stewart Whitehead. It was made with a combination of British and American timber.

Fantastic to see it in such a contemporary and stylish setting.
