Dylan Hird

Dylan is a Colorado-based metal artist whose work exists at the intersection of industrial history and the wild, organic rhythms of the Mountain West. Utilizing a "scavenger’s eye," he transform discarded steel—salvaged from abandoned industrial buildings, forgotten mines, and scrap heaps into sculptures that breathe new life into the state’s forgotten materials. For Dylan, the hunt for material is as much a part of the creative process as the weld itself; every rusted rod and weathered plate carries a specific story of places that were.
