Arborsmith Studios - Arborsculpture

Arborsculpture is the art of shaping the trunks and branches of trees. Flexible saplings are guided into forms that soon become lignified (solid) wood. By bending, pruning, and grafting, creations in living wood can be grown while sequestering CO2.

About 15 years ago I was inspired by the work of Axel Erlandson (1884-1964) who grew a roadside attraction featuring his amazing trees. His ideas present a useful and intriguing ecological option that requires further exploration.

I have dedicated my life to forwarding these ideas and seek out others who wish to participate in these projects. Let's unlock the full potential of the living tree.
