Tom’s work looks to convey the journey of its creation in its physical appearance. It looks to embrace an honesty which imitates that of nature - much like how we see the movement of growth in the physical appearance of a tree. 

Amongst other pieces he creates a range of stools called "Burl Stools" - The term "Burl" refers to the knotty growths found on trees, which are formed to create extra support. The stools look to replicate this in their formation using a soft material as support of its construction. His admiration for nature comes from growing up in his parents and grandparents garden and playing it the woods amongst the trees. It has given him an ongoing facisnitation with wood and natural materials. 

The objects he creates are emotive, they are often anthropomorphised to encourage feeling and question humanities relation to objects. It is important to him not to see every objects as a resource for humanities abundance. On a micro scale forming respect for the objects we choose to have in our lives is the beginning to a bigger change.

His current works are created in light woods such as ash and cherry, sustainable sourced from English timber merchants and hand carved and finished in his east London studio. The stools are purposeful utilitarian objects with natural character, the openness of the range of sizes and forms allows the purpose to be decided by the user.
