Tim Byrns’ Revitalized Wood Sculptures

For Minnesota-based artist Tim Byrns, his distinctive creations made from reclaimed wood are as much about process as product. Not only do they resemble some of nature’s most interesting and bizarre forms, like strange sea creatures or bulbous jungle fungi—they also embody nature’s constant cycle of destruction and renewal. While his work is impeccable, it is intentionally not seamless; instead, Byrns allows the cracks and imperfections in the wood to become part of the story, sometimes “stitching” them together to represent healing.
