Aaron Getman-Pickering

Aaron Getman-Pickering is a woodworker, designer, and artist based in New York’s Hudson Valley. After interning in the Obama White House and while working to attend law school, an unassuming carpentry job set him on a different path. Since then, he trained with leading furniture makers and artists, including Martin Puryear, Christopher Kurtz and Kieran Kinsella, building homes, furniture, art, and public sculpture. In his current studio practice, he draws inspiration from forms as varied as Danish pipes, East African headrests, architectural ornament, and industrial objects to create one of a kind lighting and furniture.
