About James
James has worked in art and design all his life. In recent years he has become entranced by the third dimension. A love for all things wood has now become his focus. A material that is so changeable, from it’s natural green state, as it dries, splits, fades, twists. Using saws and also flame. Allowing each piece of wood to guide him with its form and grain and allowing him to reveal his vision.
All the wood is sourced from naturally fallen trees or trees that have had to be removed for safety reasons.
Working wherever the wood can be found, also in his studio in Hastings and even on the beach. The environment is an important element of the work and process of creating each piece.
