Dana Theobald is a Savannah based artist and woodworker. Growing up she enjoyed playing a variety of different sports competitively. After a year of playing Division 1 basketball at Boston University, she transferred to the Savannah College of Art and Design where she studied interior design and architecture. During her post grad life of working for an architecture firm in Atlanta, she joined a communal woodshop where she learned how to laser cut and wood work. During the 2020 pandemic, she turned her boredom into creativity and began building replicas of stadium models to remind people of the happy times once experienced at them together. She now focuses on being a full-time artist out of her home in Savannah, Georgia.

Dana’s work focuses on the beauty of how sports and architecture unite people from all across the globe. She enjoys studying how each stadium is uniquely designed based on its surrounding environment and culture, and celebrating it through the use of wood. Each stadium is made up of mini wood pieces that were drafted on her computer from scratch, laser cut, and then built by hand. Each frame is also handcrafted and decorated with paint – a new medium she has recently explored.
