Thaddeus Mosley

"Thaddeus Mosley's monumental freestanding sculptures are crafted with the felled trees of Pittsburgh's urban canopy, via the city's Forestry Division; wood from local sawmills; and reclaimed building materials. With influences ranging from Isamu Noguchi to Constantin Brâncuşi and the Bamum, Dogon, Baoulé, Senufo, Dan, and Mossi works of his personal collection--Mosley's sculptures mark an inflection point in the history of American abstraction."--Publisher's website.
