Borneo cedar was prized by the wealthy who decorated their stately homes with bespoke carved furniture and wood panelled interiors. I was selected to create an artwork carved from repurposed pinewood for the Cedar Room of Pollok House, Glasgow. Practicing truth to the materials, I prioritise the process becoming a part of the work. Visible tool marks and unvarnished surfaces are evidence to the objects construction but also contrast and comment on the veneered material history and context of the space.
