Impressive Ceramic Sculptures by Christopher David White Look Like Wood

Sculptor Christopher David White creates impressive ceramic sculptures, which resemble the characteristic of wood through a trompe l’oeil style. By deceptively molding wood’s flaws, such as its knots and veins, White aims to capture the perpetual transformation of nature and the cycle of growth and decay. By exploring the beauty of wood, he depicts the impermanence of nature and its relationship with humanity. Since White successfully replicated his subject’s texture, colors and shape, the concept of illusion exposes the juxtaposition between artifice and nature in art.
