My inspiration for this piece came from three sources. A book called 500 cabinets in which there is a cabinet made by John Lee called "Farraige", this appealed to me. Also a big influence is John Makepeace, he has a cabinet called "Flow"made by Tom Kealy (whom I know well from Dwellingup). He carved all his cabinet where I only carved the front. And of course Malcolm Harris (my lecturer at The School of Wood). My cabinet is similar to all their pieces but different, selecting inspiration from each piece.
