LAYERING OF NATURAL MATERIALS
Gummy’s form was found full scale, sculpting with coconut husk and wool on a curving wooden skeleton.
PLAYFUL AND UNEXPECTED
Brought to life with exceptional craft. Gummy combines Toogood’s disdain for convention with a deep respect of tradition and quality.
Gummy is unapologetic in its generous, anthropomorphic proportions. A continuation of Faye Toogood’s evolving, autobiographical exploration of form.
Each Gummy piece is designed to work alongside its rotund kin or confidently stand alone.
