About the Item
American artist Jason Kimes is best known for his compelling and beautiful figurative outdoor work. This imposing sculpture (254 cm high) of a nude male in a classic yoga pose–arms crossed, one leg raised and resting on the other is made of small squares of corten steel. Over time, the patina of the steel will continue to weather enhancing the rust colour.
"Public art competes with every sound, color, movement, and any one of a thousand other distractions pulling a viewer's attention away from a still and quiet work of art." Jason Kimes
He completed a BFA in Sculpture from the University of Southern Mississippi and a MFA in Sculpture from Southern Illinois University in 2005.
Since then he has completed multiple outdoor art commissions and taken part in exhibitions across the US. His work is held in private and corporate collections

Jason Kimes
*From constantly drawing during church to digging clay from creek beds to form small animals, the opportunity to create and be creative has always driven sculptor Jason Kimes. He said it was this natural inclination that led him to study art in school. After taking his first sculpture class in college, Kimes immediately selected sculpture as his preferred medium and went on to grad school at Southern Illinois for his Masters in Fine Art. In grad school, Kimes said he learned many ways of making sculpture from clay, plaster, wood and metal. After graduation, Kimes started to weld tiny pieces of metal into the molds in place of the cast metal. “I’ve been developing that basic process ever since, which has allowed me to create work on much larger scales than I’d be able to produce through casting,” Kimes noted.* [excerpt from centralsteelservice.com] "Born in Panama and raised in South Mississippi, I've been compelled to create from my earliest memory, from digging clay from creek beds to form small shapes to drawing on every piece of paper I came across." - Jason Kimes Jason Kimes completed a BFA in Sculpture from the University of Southern Mississippi and a MFA in Sculpture from Southern Illinois University in 2005. Since then he has completed multiple commissions and taken part in exhibitions across the US. His work is held in private and corporate collections.
