Mason Eyben (Kitscoty, AB) constantly challenges himself in the field of woodturning and as a result his work displays a strong command of the medium. Exploring surface decoration and form he pushes the boundaries of traditional woodturning techniques. Mason has exhibited amongst the best woodturners in the world and has participated in the world renowned Emma Lake Collaboration in Saskatchewan where a selection artists from around the world are invited to create new work in various mediums.

“I start with an idea, but leave it open to respond to ideas that move me. A small detail can lead to a completely new direction in my work. By remaining open minded to new and unusual subject matter, it allows me to move in any direction my work takes me.”
