Tray, oiled padouk wood. Detail

Christof Lungwitz’s wooden creations explore the boundary that separates the disciplines of art, design and fine craftsmanship. He especially enjoys working with padouk, a fine hardwood that’s also used by makers of musical instruments. A characteristic feature is the brilliant contrast between the colors of sapwood and heartwood. The graphic effect of this contrast, combined with the appealingly deep pores, make a simply styled tray seem like a picture. The artistic character is further underscored by Lungwitz’s conscious decision to allow larval burrows to remain on the basic surface and to leave traces of disturbances that disconcert us, yet simultaneously stimulate our imagination.
