Jubal Prevette

Jubal Prevatte's turned work is an exploration into the stories told by trees and the lands around them. Using only responsibly sourced timber, he wants to remind others of the importance of the trees and nature around us.

Growing up in the woodlands of America, his early career was carpentry and cabinet making in Washington DC and later Portland, Oregon. After relocating with his partner Wendy to Worthing in 2023 he has focused on creating turned objects.

"I've dismissed the idea of mastering my craft or the material...instead seeking to allow the wood and it's stories be the master of me."

Jubal make pieces from locally sourced timber, from within Sussex and often even closer to his studio workshop in Worthing.

In June 2026, Jubal Prevette exhibited turned and carved bowls in Tooth & Chisel: An Exploration in Wood at Knepp Castle as part of Sussex Craft Week from (20 June – 2 July 2026). The exhibition explored the surprising parallels between human craft and the instinctive ways beavers shape their natural world.

Jubal Prevette was one of 12 finalists in the 2026 Sussex Craft Awards and his work was exhibited at Newlands House in July.

Also in 2026 his work was selected for The Future of Craft exhibition at Standen House, the National Trust’s Arts and Crafts home in West Sussex.
