I make boxes in different kinds of wood, aluminium, copper and other materials, such as bone, concrete and resin. Sometimes I use driftwood to give a contrast to the polished and smooth wood and metal. The boxes are all functional, although they are not made for any specific use. I love the process and the silent language of materials.
