A few weeks ago, we featured unique designs from F+S makers that use wood as their primary medium. This week we are taking a look at how a few of our F+S makers use stone in their work to create beautiful, one-of-a-kind products ranging from furniture to fashion.
A visit to Storm King Art Center is a great way to get a dose of art and culture and spend some time outside in the fresh air. Currently on exhibit is "A stone that thinks of Enceladus". The work comprises a series of human-made stone stacks or cairns, built of boulders gathered at Storm King, and molded glass and carved marble stones, which the artist created by hand during the winter and spring of 2020.
If you didn't have the opportunity to watch our F+S Live broadcast with Mike White of Ordinal Indicator, it's worth going back to check out. Mike gives us a tour of his workshop in the Hudson Valley and shows us step-by-step how he makes a set of coasters out of alabaster stone.
Summer might officially be over but there is still time to make one of our favorite stone fruit salads using peaches, cherries, farrow, feta, tomato, and arugula
