Found objects, weird shapes, beautiful construction. Garry Knox Bennett’s furniture sculptures consist of unexpected curves and angles, and surprising textures. A lamp made out of half of a silver orb and pyramid base, and a chair with a waffle back and curvy drawer under the seat—it’s refined funkiness.
