WOODWORKS
2020-present
craftsWOODWORKING PROJECTS IN ALL SIZES WITH RECUPERATED AND/OR FOUND WOOD
All sorts of carpentry projects, from small to considerable — furniture pieces to construction work. I reuse and restore discarded wood to improve the ever-changing living spaces of my migrant life, cultivating problem-solving skills and reaffirming my resilience in a late-capitalist world. Working with found material is inherently contextual — and although choices are shaped by limits, they often lead to unexpected solutions that deepen your appreciation for both the material and the object it becomes. Also, I do avoid screws, but I’m no carpenter.
