“Xylo”- the exhibition which opens at Sturt Gallery in Range Road Mittagong on Saturday 1st December will feature a selection of the works completed by graduating students of the Sturt School for Wood.
The exhibition will be open from 10am to 5pm daily until Sunday the 16th December.
This year's class of eleven students came to Sturt with a diverse range of careers spanning legal, medical, financial and technical professions - all have sought to retrain to the highest standards to meet the challenges of personal expression in this demanding medium.
The works of the graduating students is the culmination of a year of intense and comprehensive study. Students began the year by making some of their own tools and throughout the year there has been a focus on making works by hand in order to ensure a solid foundation in traditional techniques of furniture making. Pieces included are from a diverse range of styles, personal creativity and integrity, all completed to the high standards of technical excellence, and demanded by the Director of Sturt School for Wood, Tom Harrington.
