ANDY WALLACE

Made from Chinese/Royal Empress (Paulownia tomentosa). This timber is lightweight and yet strong and flexible. It is also impervious to saltwater, which makes it ideal for building these boards. Finished with beeswax.

This board was created in collaboration with first Nations Artist, Andy Snelgar as a part of the Ocean Dreaming Collection.

“The rivers that lead from the mountains of the east coast to the ocean play an important role in our lives. Guung is our name for river and they have many stories about creation.” Andy Snelgar
