Basic Constructs exhibition by Jeremy Lepisto

We design and make furniture and architectural products from recycled timbers. Thor’s Hammer builds to last, we believe in quality, in good design and taking care of the environment.We began in 1994, sourcing timber from local demolition sites to make custom furniture and kitchen tops. Not being able to stand by and see good timber wasted, we salvaged more and more timber from local demolitions, and our stocks grew quickly. Soon we installed sawing and dressing machinery at our workshop in the Old Canberra Brickworks, and increased our range to include architectural products, such as floor boards, timber cladding, durable hardwood decking and recycled posts and beams.  Recently relocating to Griffith, we are growing and continuing to offer our custom made furniture and recycled timber products to the Canberra region.

Thor's Hammer

Join us for the launch of Jeremy Lepisto's exhibition in the Mixing Room Gallery, Thor's Hammer, 6pm Friday 12 February

To be officially opened by Dr Rohan Nicol, Head, Jewellery &amp; Object, Australian National University School of Art &amp; Design.“I find inspiration in the layered facades of buildings, the thick tangle of city power lines, the apparent effects of time on the built environment, and other elements commonly found in my everyday surroundings. I employ this visual vocabulary to create artwork that details places that are nowhere in particular and yet are somehow familiar to most. By giving focus to the peripheral, I look to explore the complex in the common and comment on the condition of the spaces we all share.” Jeremy Lepisto works from his independent glass studio in Queanbeyan (NSW), Jeremy Lepisto Projects. He creates his own works as well as commissioned kilnformed pieces for other people.Lepisto has exhibited internationally, including solo exhibitions throughout Australia, the USA, and group exhibitions in Berlin, New York and Melbourne, to name just a few.
