ABOUT FORMED & FOUND
Our inaugural collection of functional sculptures predominately explores the interplay between ‘found’ and ‘formed’.
We traverse materiality; timber, metal, stone, mirror, ceramics, fabric, paper and found objects ~ to amplify, within a condensed collection our diverse practice.
This collection moves away from traditional modes of furniture design and making, and leans into the idea of re-use ~ towards limiting waste and landfill, and towards a mindful archaeology of materials and what they might become. Materials are stories, these functional sculptures bring together disparate elements with unique, idiosyncratic personalities to create their own distinct narrative
