Recurrent Remnants

Driftwood Work by Caitlin Roben

“A collection of sculptural driftwood carvings has

been inspired by a love of the waters and woods that

surround us, here in the Sacandaga and Mohawk

Valleys. I aim to find a quiet grace in these small

pieces of once large trees. The carving is guided by

the integrity of what remains after the life of the tree,

- the tossing and turning in time, water, ice and

stones. I hope these pieces bring a sense of peace,

consideration, and connection.”

Caitlin Roben is an artist and woodcarver based in Hope Falls, N.Y.,

creating abstract sculptural pieces with driftwood. She also

collaborates with furniture and cabinetmaker Russ Gleaves on custom work in homes around the Adirondacks.
