Erik Wolken - Works In Wood
I build functional sculpture, work that serves both a sculptural aesthetic and a utilitarian function. There is a rhythm and poetry I seek to create in my pieces, a flow to the lines, a confluence of color and texture that makes a complete statement.My pieces are often the result of a process of discovery. Seldom do I start with a plan written in stone but a series of rough pencil sketches and the belief that I can divine the meaning of a piece in the process of building it
