The artist’s name: Design: Agnieszka Śniadewicz-Świca Execution: Square Drop The date of the piece: March 2021 Dimensions: diameter: 55 cm, height: 140 cm including the base (12 cm) Technique: The column is made of solid oak wood. The tiny logs, cut in gentle curves, are joined together using traditional grooves. The shaft has been sanded to give an oval, smooth shape. The base is left in its rough, untreated state. Material used: solid oak wood, carpenter’s glue Amount of material used: about 0,3 m3 of wood Amount of material wasted on testing, if any: 0.05 m3 Manual woodworking allows precise selection of the material and drawing of templates with as little waste as possible. Amount of waste material: 0,05 m3 What the completed piece would look like: The work has no shelves made in the interior of the column, no fittings nor a fitted door on a strap hinge going through the full height of the column. The wood would have been stained with a spirit stain in black colour. The whole piece would be protected with shellac polish and waxed with beeswax.
