London-based artist Sarah Emily Porter runs the design studio Porter + Trundle which creates playful and sculptural interior objects that remind us to be both bold and daring.
Using a combination of traditional craft techniques with digital process to manipulate wood into ambiguous forms, Porter + Trundle create work that is unconstrained by the expectations associated with the material. The application of colour, a key component of their work, obscures the craftsmanship invested, further simplifying the forms to allow them to drift into pure abstraction. Originally trained in fine art, they seek to occupy the spaces between art, craft and design, to exhibit work that is the perfect fusion of colour, form, and craftsmanship with a meticulous attention to detail. Both visually stimulating and highly practical their work bridges the gap between the functional and dysfunctional, adding an artistic edge to interior spaces.
Porter + Trundle has won numerous awards including the Broomhill National Sculpture Prize 2018, the Richard Seager Annual Arts Award 2019 and the New Ashgate Rising Stars Award 2021. In 2019 they were commissioned by the London Festival of Architecture to create their signature City of London Bench which sat outside the Royal Exchange.
