The Layered Column
A vertical timber sculpture built from offset carved planes and layered geometric volumes.
Storytelling
Offset planes and stepped volumes give this vertical timber fragment a strong sculptural rhythm, as if several forms had been compressed into a single column.
Cuts, cracks and worn surfaces remain visible throughout, preserving the contrast between geometric structure and the irregularity of aged wood.
Mounted on a minimal black metal base, the piece is presented as a contemporary object while retaining the raw character of the original material.
