Description:
With each iteration of the vessel, Gareth tests the limits of craft, both in materiality and human perception.
15 years on from the production of his first vessel, but wanting to challenge the ever-changing boundaries of digital manufacturing and its relationship to craft still, Gareth employs Sandhelden´s technique of 3D printing.
Despite consistent progress in digital CNC manufacturing, there are still limitations. In a bold move Gareth steps away from his expert material, wood, and for the first time explores the possibilities of another raw material, sand.
