Artist, Justin O'Rourke in the Blacksmith shop

Justin O’Rourke creates steel sculptures and large-scale, object-based drawings. His practice draws upon inspiration from childhood experiences exploring the industrial ruins of West Rutland, Vermont, and adventures as a hydroelectric mechanic. These, along with observations of nature and a playful, imaginative vision, are the foundation for his unique voice. O’Rourke manipulates and varies scale, an intentional device used to incite viewer response. Steel sculptures and charcoal and ink object-based drawings are oversized to encompass the viewer or small and intimate to draw someone closer. justindorourke.com
