Family Matters 02
A piece with a lot of wood.
This is a triptych with two mobile surfaces that shows on both sides the terrible story of the origin of the little bear and the bad influence of the old cricket.
Family Matters 02
Family matters.
The father, his shadow and his sword.
The mother, her crown and her two eggs.
Bear is born and receives an idea and a spoon.
Bear eats brother.
The wrath of the father and the protective mother.
Osito revenge and the wake.
Blood and death.
Innocent or guilty?
Family Matters 01
This is a small work, delicate in its details and complex in its three-dimensionality, made with the best solid woods. Wood cut with laser light and glued with great care.
This is the second piece made in 2021 with this design (the first was discarded for various reasons, although it can be seen right above this text).
This design is always built with different woods, being sold as a unique piece identifiable through its grain, recognizable in the archival photographic references that the author makes of each piece and shows on this website. An unambiguous form of identification.
This piece is only sold upon request. Given the complexity of its execution, it may take a minimum of four weeks to finish and deliver.
For any questions or concerns, please contact the author.
This piece is shipped in a cardboard box, protected inside with extra-firm foam (density 40 kg per cubic meter) and outside with plastic protection.
I recommend not exposing this piece to direct sunlight, or high temperatures or places with high humidity: solid wood is a living and delicate material that must be protected. If necessary, any dust that may accumulate can be removed with a soft brush. The piece was only polished with natural wax: it does not contain varnishes or dyes.
The piece has a built-in hanger on the back (it does not appear in the photograph), in case you want to hang it on a wall.
