Episode Synopsis

Today, we’re speaking with artist Ted Thirlby, who transforms reclaimed plywood into striking monotypes and sculptural reliefs. Raised in Michigan, Ted eventually made his way to New York, where the city’s vibrant arts scene left a lasting impression. He later stepped away from art to raise a family and run a construction company, returning with a renewed perspective and a deep interest in how materials and people change over time. Now based on the North Fork, he creates work that captures transformation and the passage of time, letting the natural character of weathered wood guide each piece. tedthirlbystudio.com
