Erica Moody | Fine Metal Work
Waldoboro

Overview

My current work sculpting serving wares evolved from wanting to create tools that create
connection, and focused that intersection with the spirituality in sharing food. My utensil
designs are inspired by a variety of antique serving styles, traditional metal craft techniques, as
well as minimal design and fabrication learned from my collaborations over the last 30 years
with artists, architects, and designers to engineer and fabricate their custom projects in furniture,
sculpture, and unique hardware. My process is to develop a conversation with the materials,
mostly brass, copper, and steel – and create a purposeful simplicity with focused attention on
human connection & haptic experience, enhanced by careful craftsmanship. I use both refined
and organic techniques, where areas of texture can emerge and become a nuanced detail that
documents the process while conveying the intimate sense of time, ritual, existence and
connection of the maker, user, and object. The same process is followed in my growing line of cabinet hardware.
