Formulated from stained ash, Wander is crafted in Castle’s famous wood lamination technique but despite the many layers of wood that form the sculptural table, it remains light in form. The void-like hole in the centre helped Castle remove unnecessary weight without affecting the structure’s integrity, therefore allowing him greater freedom to expand the artwork’s overall volume.

He reinvented himself for nearly six decades.
