      This geometric origami pattern cast in glass was inspired by waterfalls in the Lake District of England.  Although the piece is still, the repeated patterns are reminiscent of water hitting rocks with force and catching the light. Joint work by Anna Lee Chalos-McAleese and Andrew McAleese.

      This hand crafted intarsia inlay is a study of the edge between pattern and randomness. Traditional joinery techniques using butternut, oak, walnut, ash and cherry was employed in constructing this piece. Walnut sticks were first cut diagonally, then wood veneer was inserted and the sticks re-glued. These sticks were then cross cut to make the repeating unit of the inlaid pattern. Units were rotated and flipped before fixing into the field.

By presenting the end-grain of crosscut sticks of wood, he could develop repeating fields of pattern. Hand constructed using traditional joinery with ash, cedar, walnut purple heart and poplar.

      Traditional joinery was employed in this intarsia inlay. It was hand constructed by the artist using traditional joinery with white pine, cedar, maple, purple-heart and walnut. Vee-grooved pine panel, an old drafting table, provides a field for the intarsia pattern. The repeating squares of the inlays repeat the configuration of the whole with the light and shadow of the grooves repeating in the light and dark woods of the inlay. The inlay is thus the template for the full object as a Seed.
