Employing traditional fine metalworking skills, Max Warren makes resonant contemporary objects inspired by the complexity of natural, digital and social structures. Current works are constructed from a patchwork of mixed metal tiles and custom silver alloys. Intricate patterned surfaces exist in tension with minimalist forms made for the wall or table.
