Revealing Wonder Brad Conklin’s Artistic Heirlooms are biomorphic sculptures that combine multiple woods and metal scrap in a way that catches his viewer off-guard.
“I like building stuff that no one else has seen. They just stand there and shake their head. That’s the reaction I’m looking for and that’s why I like the Saratoga show so much,” he said. Conklin is the featured exhibitor at the 2019 Northeastern Woodworker’s Association Woodworker’s Showcase. A five-time winner of the show’s People’s Choice award, this year he will display an entire collection of his work on the second floor of the City Center. “Everybody that’s seen my work and is affiliated with the show knows that it gets people talking,” said Conklin.
