Episode 024: Danielle Rose Byrd

Cut the Craft

Recorded February 22, 2021.

Woodcarver Danielle Rose Byrd started out making things with anything she could get her hands on. Her ingenuity has continued to influence her work as she starts to include different materials into her practice. Danielle is particularly interested in conceptual woodworking and its interplay with function. She makes bowls that are unique, beg to be interacted with, and enjoys the challenge of wood as a material. In the hope of demystifying and consolidating the techniques she’s learned as a bowl carver, Danielle has written a book called, “The Handcarved Bowl," available now!
