Anthony Bryant is internationally recognised for his unsurpassed work in ‘green’ woodturning. He has developed a technique to produce extremely
thin-walled pieces using green timber which is softer and lends itself best to his practice. He stretches the potential of the material to its furthest limits – both in scale and in his unrivalled ability to turn to an absolutely breath-taking thinness.
Examples of his work are held in numerous public collections including the V&A Museum, Liverpool Museum & Art Gallery, Ulster Museum, Crafts Council, The Fitzwilliam Museum and the Sainsbury Collection.
This exhibition features pieces in oak, ash, elm, yew, horse chestnut and apple wood; each created from wood from three Cornish locations: Trengwainton, Godolphin and Tremenheere. You can learn more about his process and some interesting discoveries along the way by reading our blog and watching our short film here.
