Magnificent wooden sculpture. // Tongue and Groove Stove by David Nash, crafted in 1983, showcases the artist’s profound skill in working with wood and his deep appreciation for its natural forms. This sculpture is constructed with interlocking wooden blocks, each cut with precision to fit together in a manner reminiscent of traditional carpentry techniques like tongue and groove joints. The earthy tones and rich grain of the wood are highlighted, emphasizing the organic texture and structure. The staggered, tower-like form creates a balance between rustic strength and refined craftsmanship. Nash’s work often explores themes of growth, connection, and transformation, and this piece exemplifies these concepts, presenting wood as both a functional material and an artistic medium with expressive potential.

What is Emphemeral Art?
Ephemeral art is a type of art that occurs only once and typically lasts for a very short period. It cannot be displayed as a traditional work of art in a gallery or museum. Examples of ephemeral art include performances, happenings, sound sculptures, flyers, and mass-produced items. This art form emphasizes the transient nature of the experience, existing only in the moment and often leaving no lasting physical trace.
