Pyroglyphics, by Ken Ketter "The Art of Wood and Electricity” Pyroglyphics is a unique art style combining fine woodwork with a technique called Fractal Burning. This technique uses 12,000 volts of electricity which is passed through wood to produce Lichtenberg Figures. These figures resemble lightning bolts and are largely random. I use a proprietary method to control the burning process to allow the expression of my vision for a particular piece. Once burned, the piece is often colored by using wood dye to enhance the story told by the burn. A specialized method of applying the dye is used to bring the piece alive. As an alternative to dying, a clear finish is often applied to the piece after burning to let the natural beauty of the wood dominate. This emphasizes the interaction between different wood combinations, their grain patterns and the Lichtenberg Figures. This approach is most frequently used with exotic woods such as Bubinga, Purple Heart, Bloodwood, Sepele, Leapardwood, African Padauk, Black Limba, Ipe, Machiche, Wenge, Shedua, Teak and Tropical Walnut. Domestics such as Cherry, Maple, Alder, Hackberry, Black Locust, Flagstaff’s much maligned Siberian Elm, local Gambel Oak, Quarter Sawn Oak and Mulberry are also frequently used. These are all one of a kind, original pieces. I will consider designing and producing custom pieces upon request. Email: tubac24@gmail.com or Cell: 928/853-5339.
