Starburst

This wall sculpture is a flowing ribbon-like form that undulates vertically in an S-shaped rhythm. Carved from red oak and sandblasted to expose the grain patterns that flow with the curved surface. The interior tones range from warm browns and golden hues to darker, almost black areas, while the outer edge is outlined with a dark border, emphasizing the contours.

The overall effect is organic and dynamic, resembling waves, a twisting leaf, or a sinuous natural form frozen in motion. The clean white background highlights the sculpture’s texture, depth, and rhythmic curves.

Wall sculpture, Red Oak sculpted down from a 80 Lb slab to 7 Lbs, sand-textured and dyed black with an oil finish. 31″Tall x 14″ Wide x 7″ Deep

This sculpture is a wall-mounted relief carved from a single piece of Black Walnut. The wood grain is a central visual element: layered bands of light and dark tones follow the spiral’s motion, enhancing the sense of rotation and depth. The carving is highly dimensional, with undulating ridges and recessed channels that create dramatic shadows, making the surface feel almost geological or fluid, as if the wood were flowing inward. The spiral suggests multiple interpretations: a whirlpool, vortex, galaxy, or natural force such as wind or erosion. The central hole acts as a focal point, evoking ideas of origin, collapse, or infinite motion. The slightly irregular lower edge contrasts with the precise square format, reinforcing a tension between natural processes and human design. Overall, the sculpture feels dynamic and immersive, combining organic texture with strong geometric framing, and invites contemplation of movement, time, and natural energy frozen in wood.
