An established name in functional art, Roy McMakin bridges the gap between the conceptual and the practical with beautiful, handcrafted furniture pieces that explore ideas of memory, and meaning. Now in his 60s, McMakin has had more than 30 solo exhibitions and seen his work acquired by museums including LA County Museum of Art (LACMA) and San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (SFMOMA). On show at Nomad, the Another Kountry collection for Established & Sons expands on familiar forms, injecting elements of dissonance with small details.
