Robert is a craft and design artist. His practice is driven by an exploration of materials and their interaction with specific making processes. He seeks to balance controlled, fine craftsmanship with the free expression of the material itself. Each decision he makes carries consequences, ones that aim to celebrate the personality of the material or the process.

Using furniture as a form of artistic expression, he creates pieces that are unique to each making. His work embraces contrast, texture, and individuality - resulting in objects that hold presence, character, and a sense of material honesty.
