Valley Glacier
Valley Glacier captures the dynamic essence of glacial movement through a refined composition of natural oak and sculpted resin, creating a tactile meditation on geological time and natural flow.
This sophisticated piece features white oiled hand-textured oak as its organic foundation, where visible grain patterns enhanced by a soft pale finish evoke the rugged terrain carved by glacial forces. Embedded within the wooden base, sculpted forms of dyed straw cast in satin-finished resin flow in contoured shapes that deliberately mimic a valley glacier carving its path through the landscape. The resin-encased straw elements create layered, dappled light effects that add depth and movement, capturing the motion and weight of ice in a suspended, tactile state.
Materials: Oak, oil finish. End-grain straw in resin, satin finish.
