thaddeus mosley new york wood sculptures 1234744085

Thaddeus Mosley, a 98-year-old sculptor based in Pittsburgh, creates monumental wood sculptures that weigh hundreds of pounds and rise high into the air. Working alone in a cavernous studio, he carves cherry and walnut using gouges, comparing his process to judo. Despite his long career spanning seven decades, Mosley remained largely unknown outside Pittsburgh until recently. He has now gained wider recognition following his inclusion in the 2018 Carnegie International, and his work is currently featured in a major exhibition at New York's City Hall Park, where he shows giant bronze versions of his wood creations.
