Carved from ancient Irish bog oak, preserved beneath the earth for thousands of years, this sculptural work carries a raw, totemic presence.
The form emerges directly from the wood art face, part natural structure as if revealed rather than constructed. The asymmetry and carved features create a sense of duality, where the human expression and the organic material exist in tension.
The deep, dark tones of the oak, formed over millennia in the boglands, give the surface a dense, almost elemental quality. Light moves across the contours, revealing subtle shifts between shadow and form.
This piece exists somewhere between sculpture and artifact grounded, expressive, and entirely singular.
Each piece of bog oak is unique. This work is one of a kind.
