"Storm" Wall Sculpture
Sugar Maple Wood 13.5" Diameter
"Storm" was born from my fascination with the unpredictable energy found in nature. I wanted to capture that fleeting moment when lightning slices through the sky—powerful, wild, and beautiful. The carved geometric patterns radiate outward like bursts of energy, while each line has been burned into the wood, symbolizing the lightning. The dark, burned accents add depth and drama to the smooth surface, giving the sculpture a bold presence.
The natural light tones of sugar maple create the perfect canvas, allowing the burned lines to stand out, evoking the striking contrast of lightning against the night sky. I finish each sculpture with natural oils to enhance the wood’s warmth and protect it for years to come. Whether it’s mounted horizontally or vertically, "Storm" brings a sense of power, movement, and connection to any space it occupies.
What Makes This Sculpture Special:
- Sustainably Sourced Wood: Crafted from responsibly harvested sugar maple.
- Hand-Carved Precision: Each groove and texture is shaped by hand, ensuring no two pieces are exactly alike.
- Spalted Accents: Naturally occurring patterns add depth and tell the wood’s unique story.
