Imagine a material that grows naturally from the ground, is strong and non-toxic, highly versatile and gets better with age: a material whose properties include carbon storage and, once used, is easy to recycle. Happily, it exists. It is wood. For Gallery FUMI’s first exhibition of 2021, eleven of the gallery’s artists have created new pieces, which demonstrate the incredible range and versatility that wood offers, from the purity of a polished plank to a new method of recycling sawdust and shavings into a fully useable material.

About
Gallery FUMI
There were fewer specialist galleries, fairs and rather less of an audience for unique and limited edition design works, when Sam Pratt and Valerio Capo decided to open Gallery FUMI in 2008. Both came from non-design backgrounds (banking and marketing respectively) and the only driving factor in their inception of this project was pure and unadulterated passion, not to serve the market, such as it was, but to invest in the people making the work.
