About the Work

Christopher Kurtz’s pieces are born, first and foremost, from a sculptural motivation invested in the specificity of objecthood: '[F]or me, making sculpture is not a conceptual or immaterial practice, it’s physical. I settled on wood as my medium because it’s structural, but also malleable and alive.’


Constructed with walnut wood, 'Sheets Desk and Chair' highlights Kurtz’s expert use of locally sourced natural material to create poignant and poetic sculptural compositions.


Embedded in the structure of these objects is the notion of accumulation and repetition. Going further, both desk and chair carry within them traces of the body in action, of placing, decision making and the ongoing rituals surrounding craft and sculptural practice.⁠
