Wood Working

There is something about working with wood–as a living material–a material that still changes, adapts, responds to weather, even once it has been cut, that makes it unique. There is also the astonishing beauty of wood, as a living material, that bears evidence of the life of the tree from which it came. Woodworking can be approached as a meditation in motion, an opportunity to work with ones hands in intimacy with a malleable material, to shape it precisely, and to work with its particular nature. In this video, we explore some of the practice of working with wood restoratively.
