Sticks and Stones by Mary Maguire
The natural materials of wood and stone have a timless, sculptural quality that perfectly reflects the crafts and home interiors of today, while retaining links with artefacts of an earlier age. The use of natural and organic items for decorative and symbolic purposes is as ancient as the materials themselves: from basket-making to Roman pebble mosaics, the utilisation of simple, found materials by man has been constant through history and is just as valid and exciting today. With its stunningly original designs and beautiful photography, this book is the first practical craft book to explore the extraordinary potential of working in crafts with natural, found materials, and the only guide you will ever need on the subject.
Mary Maguire studied Fine Art and Textiles at Goldsmith's College, London, and gained an MA at the Royal College of Art in Metalwork and Jewellery. Since then she has continued to develop and exhibit her work in various different media.
