Sho Ota’s Side Table / Stool #2 from the Surfaced series blurs the line between functional object and sculptural art. Part of Ota's ongoing exploration of materiality, this piece exemplifies his mastery of woodworking, where each element is a careful dialogue between nature and human touch. Crafted from wood, Side Table / Stool #2 carries the distinct textures and imperfections of its organic origins, while being subtly shaped by Ota’s precise, minimalist aesthetic.
In the Surfaced series, Ota focuses on the transformation of raw materials, revealing their inherent beauty through surface manipulation. The result in Side Table / Stool #2 is a piece that feels both ancient and contemporary, as if it has grown out of the material itself but is refined through intentional human intervention. Its dual functionality—serving as both a side table and stool—enhances the dialogue between art and utility.
With Side Table / Stool #2, Ota challenges traditional perceptions of furniture design, elevating a simple, everyday object into a meditation on form, texture, and craftsmanship. The piece invites viewers not only to observe its structure but to engage with its tactile surface, bridging the gap between nature’s rawness and the artist’s hand.
