From functional furniture to nonfunctional off-center forms, the work of woodworker Mark Sfirri continually blurs the line between woodturning pieces and sculptures. His unique and eclectic artistry will be on display at The Henry Gallery at Penn State Great Valley, Malvern, from March 27 through May 22.

The exhibit, “Many Things Considered: Works on Paper & Works in Wood,” features nearly 90 of Sfirri’s rarely displayed prints, sculptures and watercolors, including pieces from his signature series, “Rejects from the Bat Factory,” a humorous take on the great American pastime.
