Vladimir Davydov

Kyrgyzstan, Central Asia

Vladimir enjoys working with the natural shape of the

wood, integrating bark and knots into his carvings.

Primarily carving dry linden wood using chisels and

knives, he always begins the process with a detailed

sketch, but often diverges from the plan after he begins

a carving, adding or removing details as he sees fit. He

finishes the carvings with shellac, stains, and acrylic

paint. He then seals the carvings with three layers

of varnish. Vladimir hopes to invoke in his work the

interaction between man and nature: two entities that

coexist in distinct and sometimes conflicting ways.
