woody sparks
Course dates: June 8th to June 13th 2009
Kick your perception of what wood is all about – or other ways of using wood and various ways of doing it. This workshop is totally dedicated to this unique material that makes up so much of what we do in today’s world.
We have invited one of Denmarks best furniture makers and he will with local cabinetmakers be part of helping the participants to develop smaller object relating to wood which all and at the same time will be part of a kind of pavilion for the appreciation of wood - a small temple maybe - or maybe its a piece of furniture - who knows?
The idea is to discuss and see and understand better what wood is all about - not just as wood, but also as what are trees all about - and what do trees do and what would the world look like if we had no trees etc...a course for young students to learn about a fantastic material from people who believe they know something about it.
