MOKUZAI
Woodworking / Material Application / Catalogue Design
2022
Exploring wood working and digital fabrication technologies, Mokuzai is a two part project, consisting of a pair of Japanese wood joints and a sculpture. The Tsugite wood joints were created through CNC milling, and handcraft techniques. The 'Dance of the Wind' sculpture explored the combining of fabrication technologies such as laser cutting, CNC milling, and the use of power tools. The project explores forms and techniques of wood bending using patterns and laser engraving. A bearing was used to create a self rotating mechanism along with the wind, hence the name.
