Robert George works 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 Robert creates, the journey from camaraderie and brilliant team work on site to insular and meditative time in the studio is encapsulated in his work. He uses 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.
