Label TextA pioneer in contemporary woodturning, Mark Lindquist integrates his interest in Japanese ceramics with a respect for the natural appearance the wood. This regard for the material is seen in the handling of the base of Post Volute/Pre Chaotic Column, where the artist has allowed a burl to interrupt the three-dimensional design on the form’s surface.
