Still Life Malcolm Martin and Gaynor Dowling

Published 03 / 12 / 2018

Malcolm Martin and Gaynor Dowling are two designers and artisans based in England. They design wood sculptures, ranging from monumental works for exteriors to very light pieces composed only of wood veneer. The majority of their parts, and this since 1997, are worked using hand tools such as ax, gouge and drill.

Their Still Life series consists of a multitude of unique pieces made in oak. Naturally monochrome by the color of the wood, colored with chalk, or even burnt, they are inspired by the luminosity and the darkness, as well as the facades of the French Mediterranean coast.
