About the Work

Oregon pine was treated in

several stages. The wood was

first worked with a metal brush

to create relief, then stained in

black and finally sanded on the

surface. The recessed grain

therefore remained black while

that in relief retrieved its

original orangey colour. With

this treatment Sornay created a

random two-colour pattern

made up of of long, sinuous,

black and orangey waves

evocative of magnetic waves.
