Bernat’s woodcarvings are handmade using carving knives and gouges. His bespoke pieces are geometrical, intricate and visually captivating. He also teaches groups and individuals these techniques through online and in person workshops.
ENG: Bernat started woodcarving after taking a course in 2016. Ever since he has been improving his skills and developing his visual language. As he carves each piece, he gets inspired to work on the next one. Small details that decorate one piece can become the main element of the following piece. This is how Bernat finds new ways to combine styles and patterns. The combination of relief carving and chip carving allows him to create unique environments that feed the imagination. He enjoys sharing this practice through workshops and classes. Having the opportunity to meet new people interested in carving and seeing their progress inspires him and motivates him to keep sharing!
