The work

Creatures drawn in fire — sirens, octopuses, crows and other imagined beings, each burned on a live-edge slab whose grain, knots and imperfections guide the image. Every piece is unique and unrepeatable: the same subject can never be burned twice on the same wood.

Still Becoming

Pyrography on live-edge wood · free-standing

A face surfaces through coral, kelp and reef life, the boundary between woman and reef left deliberately unresolved. The carved live edge is part of the drawing — the composition follows the wood’s own silhouette.

The Siren’s Call

Pyrography on live-edge wood

A siren turns away mid-song, hair and fin drawn in the same continuous, flowing line. The slab’s pale outer edge frames the figure like the curl of a wave.

Submerged Song

Pyrography on live-edge wood

Three jellyfish rise like sound from a gramophone’s horn — a music box for a drowned parlour. The slab’s long oval echoes their drift upward.

Distorted Reality

Pyrography on live-edge wood

An octopus wears a vintage diving helmet and holds tools claimed from the surface world. The slab’s natural red seam cuts the scene like a horizon line.

Snare

Pyrography on live-edge wood

Two hands caught in kelp and barnacles, bubbles rising — entanglement drawn with an etcher’s patience across the slab’s concentric rings.

From the recent show

The First Collection.

Five new pyrography works leaning against a yellow striped wall: a woman with octopus tentacles in her hair on a round slab, a corset on a shaped slab, a skull study on a narrow plank, a serpent-wreathed face on a dark panel, and a raven perched on a branch on a live-edge oval

Five pieces from The First Collection, EA’s debut showing — ravens, corsetry and serpent-wreathed faces joining the submerged world. “Through burning, discarded wood is altered into something charged with fantasy, memory, and emotional presence.” Individual photography, titles and availability are on their way; if one already speaks to you, ask now.
