Demonstration on Saturday, 28 January 2012
Driftwood Carving by Boniface Chikwenhere

logo

 

 

 

Boniface Chikwenhere produced sculptures that cannot be ignored and few can pass his stall without admiring the way he coaxes recognisable forms out of complex pieces of driftwood that have been worn away from years of attack by the elements of nature.

 

The combination of both rugged and flowing aspects of his work is sufficiently interesting but the viewer that looks beyond the obvious will see that there are layers of thought that leave much more to be discovered in each piece. The contribution of nature is never erased but rather blended into the final piece so that its full history remains captured in the artwork.

 

Once again, this is certain to be a popular demonstration so be sure not to miss the Country Craft Market of 28 January and visit Boniface at his stall. Then afterwards, enjoy a stroll around all the other interesting craft stalls for a good morning's fun in the sun (or welcomed shade).
