Joe Norman is now working as a full time sculptor, working primarily in recycled materials, especially things that have a past history or emotional resonance — reclaimed wood, truck hoods, bicycle parts, bullet casings, vintage motorcycles, and the like. “I have had the good fortune to work with some very creative homebuilders, retail shops, collectives, galleries, corporations, and individual clients who all have had a love for art and the questionable sense to involve me in their lives.” He recently completed an Artist-In-Residency at Great Basin National Park where he created this table by including shapes from the Bristlecone pine tree and satellite imagery of the agricultural area surrounding the park. He is represented by Gallery MAR in Park City and the Sugarhouse Gallery in Salt Lake. In March he’ll be having a solo show at Art Access Gallery. Be sure to catch his work there because you won’t see it at the next 35×35: Joe missed the age cutoff by a couple of months.
