Scott Smith is an award-winning maker whose works explore the importance of meditative craft through the processes of carving, raising and casting. Smith uses materials such as precious metals and reclaimed wood alongside a variety of repetitive and meditative practises, traditionally favoured by ancient Scottish craftspeople, to interrogate early Pictish carvings, contemplating mark making and the authenticity of replicas.
Smith often produces pieces of silverware that sits comfortably on both the dining table and in the wild Scottish landscapes that shaped their designs. A passion for meditative practises that allows for an expansive role for materials, instinctive making and spontaneous responses.
