<p>Formally trained as a blacksmith, Freyne’s work is a modern representation of a timeless craft; a homage to the foundations of blacksmithing, yet a distinct breakaway from the romanticised notions of what a smith is and is not. Presenting a deceptive reimagination of iron work, Daniel pushes the boundaries of what is though possible with his chosen material.</p>
<p>Based in Edinburgh, Freyne embarked on a blacksmithing journey over twelve years ago. Following a rigorous five-year apprenticeship, spanning six European countries, Freyne collaborated with world renowned blacksmiths before completing a bachelor’s degree and master’s degree in fine art from Gothenburg University, Sweden.</p>
