In Daniel’s first series of works, 'Bodies without Organs' the language and limits of geometric figures, with the myriad possibilities of their relational composition, informs the creative trajectory of each distinctive object. Through a slow, tactile practice, substantive forms emerge, which express a monolithic quality and evoke a sense of movement in the seemingly inert matter of wood – a sensation of motion that calls both the eye and hand towards a tactile engagement with the perceived object.
