The Divide Ring

Ring · selected work

The Divide Ring by Gustav Reyes, salvaged wood from Norm Sartorius with 3D-printed salvaged ABS structure.

An irregular wooden form is interrupted by a deliberate division. Rather than hiding the break, the ring makes separation part of its structure, holding roughness and precision in the same object.

The opening creates a small tension between what appears joined and what remains distinct—a recurring interest in the work.
