Studio Critical is an Old Trafford based studio creating tactile wooden objects.  Nick focuses his practice on using locally and sustainably sourced materials.  His spoons, bowls, vases & other objects are handmade, many of them out of green wood salvaged from urban trees that were trimmed or fell naturally.  If you are taking a tree down on your property and want to give it a new life, we can get you in touch with Nick.  Nick uses a whole range of beautiful wood to create his collection of stunning bowls, vases and serving spoons/coffee scoops including Cherry, Sycamore, Beech, Birch and Oak.

 

“Craft is not just the art of making beautiful, carefully made objects, craft is a form of protest.  A protest against the mass produced, mass consumer products that are clogging our landfills and whose processes are ruining our environment.  By engaging with craft we are attempting to show people that it is possible to make usable, beautiful objects from truly renewable and sustainable resources.  Craft demands that the maker respects their material and process in a human centred way.  We love to share our craft with you and hope you enjoy it too.”
