Michael Bauermeister transforms wood into sculptural objects, vessels, and wall relief panels that evoke natural textures and shapes. With work in many museum, corporate, and private collections—including the Smithsonian American Art Museum—he continues to combine the techniques of sculpting, wood-turning, and furniture building to new heights of expression. Using finishing techniques he has developed to add color to the hewn surface of wood, the result honors the beauty of wood while allowing it to suggest the patterns and rhythms of the natural world.
