Alan Meredith

Biography

Cavaliero Finn first spotted Alan Meredith's work at the Portfolio exhibition organised by the Design & Crafts Council Ireland in 2018 at Dublin Castle and we have been following his career ever since.

 

Alan began working with wood from an early age.  His work to date straddles the boundaries of contemporary craft, sculpture and architecture and has been exhibited both nationally and internationally.

 

Graduating with a Masters in Architecture from University College Dublin in September 2015, Alan currently works from his studio in County Laois in Ireland, imagining and creating one of a kind pieces in a range of different woods for both public and private clients. 

 

Working with locally sourced wood, Alan’s work celebrates the natural properties of wood, pushing its potential, using traditional processes to create functional, sculptural objects that are a synthesis of design, engineering and exceptional craftsmanship.

 

Recent Awards include The Golden Fleece special award  in 2023.
