The Rift
A substantial structural timber from an old river bridge, defined by the deep split in its face.
Storytelling
Recovered from an old bridge crossing a river in Kalimantan, this substantial timber is defined by the deep split running through its face. Its simplicity gives it force: a structural fragment that once belonged to a crossing, now standing alone as a sculptural form.
