Luke Malaney is a Red Hook based wood-worker and artist whose craft mixes whimsical, free-form design with robust construction and old world joinery. Trained in classic wood-handling techniques by Roman old-timer Remo Capoli, his pieces walk a fine line between furniture and sculpture without ever sacrificing the most acute attention to detail. His explorations blend the naturalistic with the dream-like while always honoring the importance of functionality and endurance.
