Will Storey
I am fascinated by blending and harmonising contrasting geometric forms in the design of each relief. Often, shapes intertwine or interlock as they progress through each layer, diminishing with depth.
With two decades dedicated to teaching Product Design, Technology, and Art, Will's passion for the artistic process runs deep. He finds profound meaning in the unique emotional responses evoked by each of his creations. His artistic journey is a fusion of diverse techniques, mediums, and materials, harmonising intricate wooden reliefs into captivating, layered artworks. Each piece embarks on a narrative voyage, inviting viewers into realms of his imagination and mindfulness, where nostalgia intertwines with meticulous illusions across dimensional layers.
Employing a blend of handcrafting and laser cutting, Will sculpts sheets of high-quality, sustainable veneers, card, and wood into fascinating reliefs. Each layer undergoes meticulous finishing, unveiling a rich, three-dimensional tapestry that captivates the senses, and invites exploration into the shadows cast on negative space.
