Featured Sculptor: Alex Hallmark

Alex works mainly in water-base clays. “I mold, cast and finish my work in bonded materials at my studio. I use foundries for casting in Bronze and my techniques allow me to use foundries all across the USA to take advantage of the best pricing possible. I think sculpture is most effective when conceived knowing beforehand the location and purpose—and is monochromatic or has the same basic finish throughout. I admire abstractions, but I think they
work best when combined with the human form or natural world.”
