Tangle

A limited edition sculpture made with intertwined pieces of laminated maple supporting a wooden ball.

 

Tangle

Tangle is the first of three pieces that I’ve made into a limited edition. It is much smaller than my previous work and was designed with accurate reproduction in mind. I took three pieces of wood cut into squiggly lines, and by passing through the center point at alternating intervals, I essentially braided them together. I used solid maple ply because the layers create a beautiful effect when tapered and the ply is a little flexible which reduces the risk of breakage from the stress of the weaving.
