One of the best things about being an artist is having a home filled with art that you didn’t just collect, but that you created yourself. This stag head piece, made of reclaimed wood and bits of wire, was in the home of a German artist who had left his driveway open for people to freely come in enjoy his work (unfortunately, I seem to have lost the card I kept with the artist’s name on it, ugh!). I loved the almost folkloric feel of this piece along with the whimsy of it, which somehow also made it feel very modern. In an increasingly hi-tech and digital world, unique art and designs reawaken our senses and bring us back to the amazing, tactile beauty of handmade work.
