The reading expanded upon the idea of craft and art being separated by process. Craft being an object that is created with a specific goal or desired outcome in mind before the production of the product is started. Whereas art is more of a fluid process that allows for the introduction of new ideas or materials to enter the process of art-making during the conception of the final product. This work by Christopher Derek Bruno to me is a good example of craft that I do not consider art. Christopher Derek Bruno uses craft and wood in a way to design a pattern to which he sees visually aesthetic. His patterns are not open for growth for the sake of relaying a message, but rather a static form that follows rules of design. His work remains more of a piece of furniture for walls rather than a piece of art that pushes a specific idea or concept.
