Steve Gore-Rowe
Self-Settling Ash and Oak Vessels
A continued exploration into the influence of natural drying processes on green wood vessels. The profiles of these vessels have been designed to interact with the movement in the wood, creating a silent conversion between the maker and material until an agreement has been met. Density of the material, volume of moisture, centre of gravity and proportions all have a part to play in the conversation until the piece is fully dry.
Steve handcrafts sculptural vessels and practical woodware from locally sourced hardwoods. He works with a variety of materials but prefers to work with imperfect timber from fallen or storm damaged trees. He uses combinations of traditional and contemporary woodcraft skills and is continually experimenting with new ideas and techniques to create decorative and functional products for contemporary spaces.
He considers the shapes and textures found in the natural world to be strong influences as well as the effect of the passing of time on objects left in the environment, he also encompasses experiences as a graphic designer, conservationist and woodworker.
Steve's most recent work involves utilizing the natural seasoning of wood as part of the overall process to create a conversation between intended design and the unpredictable characteristics of the wood.
