Bending Form is a project that experiments with new possibilities in bent wood lamination. Typically this woodworking technique involves very specific bending forms and a lot of clamping. For this project, I replaced the clamps with a plastic wrap and used my body as the bending form. The results are less about the object, but more focused on how the material and the body mutually inform each other.
