About Greg

Greg Gensheimer (he/him) is a sculptor, woodworker and general contractor. He grew up in a strict military family and the only paintings he remembers seeing in his youth were graphics on a B-52 bomber fuselage. However, he knew from a young age that he wanted to be a carpenter when he witnessed his maternal grandfather deftly jack up an entire house in order to repair its foundation.

Borrowing from his cabinetmakers wheelhouse, Greg utilizes trammel points and routers that act as a beam compass as well as a Festool domino to make Industrial Constructs. He creates arcs and semicircles on rectilinear, triangular and truncated forms to infuse movement and negative space.
