Martin Puryear


A friend recently lent me a copy of a retrospective on American artist, Martin Puryear. Puryear works primarily with various types of wood, wire, tar & rawhide, using traditional carpentry and craft methods to create alarmingly still, warm pieces of art.
He studied his craft in Sierra Leone, Stockholm & the US, and shared his exhibitions around the world with installations in the MoMA,

...just thought i'd share.
