We’re all deeply familiar with the grains and textures of wood. That’s why it’s strange and surreal to see it curved, folded, bent, and manipulated in ways that it normally doesn’t move.

Digital artist Mike Campau brings these renders to life in beautiful detail, and explores how familiar materials can feel new and fascinating.

We see various shades and kinds of wood that are folded and arranged the way fabric might be.

The skilled designer has worked with a range of brands, and also offers us a unique take on something tactile.
