Bio:
Griffith Evans harvests drought-ravaged trees in northern New Mexico and transforms them into jewelry. He draws upon his industrial design education to create work that is minimal yet warmly inviting. His work has been exhibited at PMA Craft Show, American Craft Exposition and MAD About Jewelry.
Artist Statement:
My current body of work consists of wood jewelry with bead accents. Inspired by African jewelry and curvilinear wood furniture, I produce limited production personal adornment of singular form. I harvest declining orchard wood in the northern New Mexico village of Cuartelez. Cutting open a log and seeing the exposed grain for the first time is one of the most exciting parts of the whole process. My mind literally races with possibilities as the inside is revealed. I strive to convey this excitement by crafting carefully finished, simple forms to celebrate the beauty of each piece of wood.
