Wood Turned
Large chunks of wood, razor sharp tools, and hours of concentration. Tate Eperjesi shares his mastery of Woodturning. His wood-turned bowls, vases and ornaments are lyrical works of art, each worth hundreds of dollars. Tate takes us into his artisanal sanctuary to discover the rugged allure of this delicate ancient craft and its meditative rewards that help him cope with the daily struggles of a modern life.

Ashlyn Eperjesi is a graduating senior of Cinematic Arts at George Fox University in Portland, Oregon. Her passion for documentary storytelling is evident in her recent projects "WoodTurned", "Mosaic Scholars", and nonprofit videos with the George Fox University community. Authenticity and honesty are what drives her projects. Her love for anything handmade and homemade materializes in her senior capstone documentary, "Woodturned".
Growing up, there were no restrictions of creativity. I constantly drew, painted, sculpted, photographed, imagined. I also learned that with creativity comes education, and to understand why and how we do what we love. My dad taught me to look at the world around you in a different way. Only after I pursued an education in such a highly creative media did I truly realize how lucky I am to have such inspiring parents. My hope in documenting one of my father’s intricate passions is to shed light on his love for creating and learning, and to inspire others to cultivate the hobbies that make them happy.
