About the Artwork

I made this cabinet with the image of a bird spreading its wings to fly. I made the drawer pulls by relief engraving the front side of the drawers with the image of a beak of a bird. The woodgrains are seamlessly connected.
I used a board with knotholes for the top board of the cabinet.

Techniques Used

Wood joinery

In wood joinery (sashimono), wood boards are cut into panels with care to how the grain patterns will fit together in the final piece. The wooden panels are then cut or carved to create interlocking joints. These joints, which are the key feature of wood joinery, make it possible to connect boards at right angles to produce boxes and other articles. Wood joinery is assembled without the use of nails or any other metal hardware.
