The furniture American sculptor Casey McCafferty, they exercise a respect for material and technique.

With a touch of modernity and an artisanal process, McCafferty creates sculptural furniture developed a soft and padded biomorphism.

Of bricklayer parents, he began his creative process with wood during university, where he studied business administration. However, he abandoned this profession to devote himself to creating furniture in Los Angeles.

In this way, he began with the construction of custom works on request, for architects and interior designers, until he finally developed his own line.

Tired of replicating models, he gave free rein to his imagination carving small sculptural pieces, gradually achieving a style that, with a traditional technique, resulted in a contemporary and modern design.

 

 

This is how McCafferty sketches loosely and freely. He loves to play with the massiveness and imposing wood, guided by his improvised and informative expression.l.

Tables, chairs, armchairs, sculptures, tables, totem and masks They show off their craftsmanship as well as their unorthodox imagination.

McCafferty renews with his creations the most significant artisan legacies, working with raw materials and always applying both Old World craftsmanship and experimentation.

And it is that for the American artist, it is essential to look for the intersections where tactility, substance and weight meet concept and metaphor. 

 

 

Casey is currently based in Brooklyn, where she creates works that reflect her natural surroundings., while exploring the boundaries between craft, art and technique, giving wood a freedom of depth more commonly associated with marble.
