Milwaukee based artist Dennis Felber has been creating his indoor
and outdoor sculptures since 2015. Inspired by the unique shapes
and textures found in nature, his sculptures incorporate a
combination of stone, steel and copper that mimic the organic forms
observed around him. Utilizing specific welding techniques he creates
sculptures that reveals a sense of movement and flow yet showing a
balance between the materials of metal and stone giving the sense
they are alive and growing. From large scale commissions to smaller
wall pieces his art elicits a want to touch it and experience the texture
created. His work has won numerous awards and has been shown in
galleries across the US.
