Andrew Eaton

Artist Statement

Through the Art of Turning wood, I celebrate the beauty of nature, showcasing the inherent charm and imperfections in every piece of timber. Inspired by the Japanese philosophy of wabi-sabi, I aim to capture nature’s imperfections and embrace the unique stories etched by time. Each turning becomes a testament that accentuates the beauty nature has left behind.
