2. Bryan Cush, Dja Dja Table, spotted
gum, blackbutt. ‘This piece explores the landscape of the Macedon Ranges – the traditional land of the Dja Dja Wurrung and other groups. The contours of various volcanoes are engraved into the timber and the rivers and creeks inlaid in brass. Photo: Northside Studio
3. Kaspian Kan, Thanks Hipparchus, ‘A small table with an easily manoeuvred shape
for multifunctional use. Named for the trigonometry required, the design evolved through naive daydreams, experiments in joinery, and exploration of the diversity of a small stack of kauri.’ Photo: Gary Fevreau
4. Zach Danoy, Occasional Flower Table, London plane, macadamia, purple gidgee. ‘Curiosity brought me to the final piece, the same curiosity which drives me as a maker.’
5. Robert Godoy, NZ, Textura Bench, sapele, Danish cord. ‘An entryway bench with a tray for holding everyday items.’
