Lynne Yamamoto's 'Grandfather's Shed' (2008-10) is a digitally carved marble sculpture

Lynne Yamamoto created 'Grandfather's Shed' between 2008 and 2010. The sculpture measures 10-3/4 by 11-1/4 by 9-3/4 inches and exists in an edition of two. Yamamoto employed a hybrid process involving a hand-made positive, which was then 3D scanned. This digital data guided the carving of marble, which was subsequently hand-finished. The work was documented on artcritical on November 7, 2011. The gallery P.P.O.W. is credited as the courtesy source for the artwork. The piece represents a fusion of traditional craft and contemporary digital fabrication techniques. Its title suggests a personal or familial narrative tied to the object's form.
