About this artwork
A split abstract wave showing the fluidity of water, this piece also showcases the great strength of wood and the importance of grain direction. The highlight of this piece is the point where the two parts link otherwise known as the "breaking point" of a wave. This remains only in name however since this is one wave that will never break.
The split concept was very challenging to produce and required almost every tool I own, but is equally stunning… to behold from every angle.
