The WOODIES came into being during the construction of his new painting studio. On every site visit, he would come across useful discarded materials: beautiful pieces of wood in all sorts of shapes. Simple yet wonderful materials that would otherwise have been thrown away by the carpenter.
During the construction work, he had no space to set up his easel. He felt technically unemployed. But as he started collecting the discarded wood, an idea began to take shape: creating figures.
The WOODIES came to life by stacking and combining these pieces of wood. Not a single piece was cut to size or altered. Every component is used exactly as it was found on the floor of his studio construction site, and later on other building sites too.
After assembling them, he hand-painted each WOODIE. Every WOODIE is unique and has its own name. And every WOODIE has two faces.
Every WOODIE is a recycled, sustainable, double-faced badass.
