Woven Hanging Sculpture, Binding What's Lost, in Bookmatched Ash and Silk
By Michael Moran and Celia Gibson, Moran Woodworked Furniture
Located in Gallatin, NY
American Ash is currently experiencing a catastrophic blight caused by the emerald ash borer, a non-native beetle thought to have been brought to America in shipping materials from overseas while in a dormant state. This hanging piece is a bookmatched of two 1/16” slices of Ash, unique in color, figure and shape. The 26 Ash strips are woven together using organic remnant silk as the weft threads in a three over one herringbone pattern, the same pattern used in the famous burial shroud, the Shroud of Turin. The frame is handmade by the artist in black painted Ash. Drawing from both historical weaving patterns and their applications as well as from series of tree related biological blights and human driven near-extinction events, this series of sculptures, one of which is available for purchase here, asks about our ability to recognize and heal the harms we cause. Can we bind the things we are actively tearing apart and recognize our fragile reliance on the very thing we are damaging before it is too late? Each piece of wood used in this collection came from an ecologically and environmentally sound source. Blending textile and tree in woven panels of wood, each from a dead or dying species, they have been bound back together with silk utilizing the three- hop pattern found in the Shroud of Turin, questioning whether these will be the stitches to heal our damages or the burial shroud they will be wrapped it. There are three sculptures which have been created in this series to date. In addition to Ash, Moran has woven one in Chestnut and one in Redwood Root. Please contact us for more information. Weaving, inverting, book-matching, layering and framing become an act of contemplation in Michael James Moran...

Hanging Sculpture in Lightning Struck Poplar, Framed in Cherry
By Moran Woodworked Furniture, Michael Moran and Celia Gibson
Located in Gallatin, NY
Things I've found, things that have found me 6. The lightning struck branches of this Poplar came to Moran via an old friend and former professor. The unique pale white and light mossy green color already inherent in Poplar contrasted with the char of a lightning strike has intrigued him for years. This first piece created with the wood is driven by the contrast of natural lines and human made lines; the shapes we make, the shapes nature makes and the tension between them. The graphic pale Poplar with its natural lighting charred center is framed in mitered Cherry with a hand-rubbed tung oil finish and set off against a matte black hand-painted surround. Every element of Moran's sculptures and frames are made by him in his workshop in New York's Hudson Valley. To date, there are seven unique works in this series, of which this is number six. Please be in touch for images of the entire series. Five of the seven sculptures are pictured in the last slideshow image. Things I've Found, Things That Have Found Me has manifested as an ever growing collection of works, nicknamed Lignum Novis which roughly translates to unique or odd wood. Each piece, though presented in the same Cherry framed format, is a combination of exploration, adaptation, simple surprise and adoration of the characteristics of wood. Through framing, curious moments of arboreal happenstance are set apart. Whether it is painstakingly carving a rounded band out of a single block of Cherry, finding pleasing shape and design in lightning struck Poplar or simply being awed by the traces of new limb growth left encased in the grain of an old Chestnut Oak, each piece has both been found and found me. Weaving, inverting, book-matching, layering and framing become an act of contemplation in Michael James Moran...
