Design Richard Woods & Sebastian Wrong, 2007
Plywood, timber, paint, clear lacquer
Made by Established & Sons
Richard Woods' colorful, wood-grain block prints have become an icon of contemporary design thanks to this enduring collaboration with Sebastian Wrong. Add a touch of character to any space with a WrongWoods Bedside Table. Features a single pull out drawer and an open cubby for storage.
British artist Richard Woods' canvas is any structural surface; walls, floors, house and store facades, even courtyards. To these Woods applies his signature prints - motifs of classic patterns, architectural details, pastiche decoration - all giant patterns repeatedly screen printed onto laminated boards and employed in vast wall to wall or floor to ceiling installations.
Woods is an artist whose very particular method of making crosses preconceived borders of art, architecture and design. But these boundaries do not concern Woods - his work, he suggests, is not tied to these disciplines but is influenced by each of them. Central to Wood's work is the idea of motif. The patterns he chooses to replicate are each already faux designs, patterns that are familiar in their second coming - previously reappointed as decoration in domestic and architectural spaces.
The cartoon nature of Woods designs are in direct contrast to the pseudo pretentiousness to how the (now unfashionable) designs have been appointed in the past. The gaudy, brightly colored woodblock print (a bold interpretation of wooden flooring) has seen several manifestations in galleries and exhibitions, for specially-commissioned work for residential interiors, as an installation in stores (for Paul Smith's new flagship store in New York) and most recently as the surface decoration for the 'WrongWoods' collection of furniture for Established & Sons.
Woods work is a rich and dense saturation of exaggerated print and color that affects the senses and offers an alternative reality. Experiencing a Woods installation can be a little like going through the looking glass - but without the sinister undertones as Woods work is clearly derived from a fondness and an affection for the prints he reworks and a is a riotous celebration of the nostalgia they evoke.
WrongWoods are a collection of storage units and a dining table designed by Richard Woods and designer Sebastian Wrong. The pieces of furniture are clad in different colorways of Richard Woods woodblock 'Logo' printed laminate and are available from Established & Sons.
