'enignum' and 'erosion' are two collections by self-taught irish designer joseph walsh. combining art and craftsmanship, the form of each shape is dictated by the existing qualities found in the wood. instead of overriding the material and forcing a particular end result, walsh works with the wood, stripping it into thin layers and moulding it into usable furniture. the free form compositions are a collaboration between the natural divisions in the wood grain, and walsh's reconfiguration into functional items.
