Through laminating wood, Lucy Le Feuvre’s work explores the power of objects and artefacts, the aesthetic sensual pleasure of layering and refining surface, notions of utility, scale and form. Significant influences include the vast canyon landscapes of  Utah and Arizona and the Fjords of the west coast of Norway; medical museums, such as the Royal College of Physicians and the Mutter museum; and agricultural and hand-made tools and instruments.
