Speaker

Artist Brent Comber, Brent Comber Studio inhabits the space between expression and function to create storied works reflective of the Pacific Northwest’s ephemeral landscape.

My practice explores generation, connection, permanence, and impermanence. Embedded with memory, the materials I work with—wood, predominantly distinct tree forms, and light—are elemental to the story being told, with their story and my own inextricably linked to the Pacific Northwest. This place, as a physical environment and a sensorial experience, has shaped who I am and how I see as an artist. Sculptural and often large-scale or inherently purposeful, my work invites the viewer to reimagine their relationship with the natural world.
