Robert George

Robert George utilises a material that surrounds him - wood. With timber sourced from his own carefully considered arboricultural practices and sustainable small-scale forestry operations, all from within a 30mile radius of his workshop in rural Northamptonshire, the artist seeks to create forms and furniture that reflect on his experiences and knowledge of trees.

 

Provenance is at the heart of every piece, the journey from camaraderie and brilliant team work on site to insular and meditative in the studio is encapsulated in his work and self-taught methods of working - following intuition and reflecting upon his own experience of how his material presented itself to him and how this may be perceived in the wider world.

 

Cavaliero Finn looks forward to presenting a new collection of work by Robert at Collect 2024 at Somerset House
