Inspiration: carving as a path, carving as a flow
I used woodcarving as an old technique. In shape of my work I was inspired by structures made by bark beetle, who, as far as I am concerned, uses his intuition and sense for wood and creates beautiful structures, yet he only search for food. As him, I was trying also to follow the properties of wood.
In comparison i used laser cutter. This tool, if your template is in jpg not in vector, doesn't go through but stay on surface. Inspired by experience of others, I was hoping for deep and divorced structures and also darker colours made by flame. Yet the result is bit inconvenient to me. I am thinking now to use more layers of the image template and adjust the machine.
For a example of my personal challenge in materials I used plasma cutter. I have never worked with metal and flames. I was interested in how this rough metod can actually take down expresive and impulsive way of drawing.

Kerfing is widely used for many purposes. Amongst all can also serve instead of joints, for example in book binding or interior design (chairs, lamps, various boxes). As I was searching internet I was impressed by use of wood in many different and not completely expected ways.
