HENRY HILLMAN, JR.

ABOUT HENRY
Cast glass, steel, and granite are the materials from which Henry Hillman, Jr creates his sculptures. In his work, he has embraced a minimalist approach to the overall aesthetics without sacrificing the complexity of the material and process. He has successfully achieved a balance between architecture, craft, construction, and fine art. Henry has been working with glass since 1982. He owns his own glass studio in Portland, OR , where he renders the work initially as 2-dimensional, intricate works on paper. From these drawings, Henry resolves proportion, dimension, scale, and dynamics before proceeding with the final creation. A critical element that enhances Hillman’s sculptures is light. The play of light on rough, yet polished glass, reinforce the artist’s interest in motion, mystery and color. Mr. Hillman has also forayed into the world of photography. His photographic array is included in numerous collections nationwide.
