Odd & rare trees turned into unique art

By Nails the Navigator

from Hampden Sydney College, VA

Comments about PBS Tree Safari: A Sculptural Journey DVD:

PBS showed how some rare & beautiful woods were found. The sculptor sought unique pieces then let each piece guide him how to best display it, from small pieces to a fantastic free-form piece more than ten feet long. Best for me were comments by old men who use the old ways of shaping wood or know how Polynesians made ocean-spanning catamarans which spread their culture across musch of the Pacific.

There was no "chain-saw" art by the narator, but a race to get all his pieces ready for a major Art Show in NYC, from small to huge pieces, each unique. All were beautiful & I'd like to get one.

The artist has a unique reductive carving technique, his experiences in Africa are fasinating and eco-friendly. The final show at SOFA Chicago is beautiful.
