Jarrah, aluminum tubing | 5.5 x 4.4 x 4.4 in/14 x 11 x 11 cm
"A piece made by the late Dale Nish always intrigued me, a form turned from worm eaten wood, I thought it was a very clever use of nature’s carvers. Having remembered this turning from 40 years ago I always promised myself that I would attempt to turn one of these fragile forms. Unable to find a wormy eaten timber I considered creating a piece using different sizes of aluminium tubing to mimic the effect."
About the Artist:
"My rural environment greatly influenced me, as I was able to observe the wind, fire and water impact the land. My intention is to incorporate these aspects into work that has a free, expressive and organic appearance while using carving and turning techniques to achieve a purity of form.
Timber a living breathing organism that captures my imagination. The opportunity to express thoughts and ideas in a tangible creation that continues to react within it’s environment. To design and create in timber posses many challenges both in structure and integrity but the pleasure I derive from my work is simple, a joy and passion to create pieces of work that I like."
Neil Turner resides on a 10 acre wooded block at Stratham 11 kilometers south of Bunbury. The years spent on his wheat and sheep farm 180 km east of Perth in Western Australia provided the opportunity to use timber normally overlooked and neglected by other woodworkers. His early years were spent juggling work and family with occasional woodturning. He has been turning and sculpting timber for over 34 years, attending workshops whenever possible to improve his technique and sharpen his focus and skills. In 2011 Neil attained a Diploma of Fine Furniture from the Australian School of Wood in Dwellingup.
