Torso, 2022
A series of three side tables with biomorphic silhouettes, the Torso series is carved from a stack of laminated, reclaimed Panga Panga parquet. Hundreds of blocks of this rare and endangered tropical hardwood have been salvaged from a school in Leicester where it lay as a herringbone floor for almost 60 years. Each amalgamation of refurbished Panga Panga is carved with a sinuous surface that form three heights of small tables, each bearing a unique torso like shape.
