Robert Houser

I'm a misplaced New Englander who moved to California 30 years ago and am living and working in the Oakland hills on a ranch surrounded by trees, goats, bees and chickens. My sculpture work with wood utilizes local urban tree fall - often trees that have been cut and milled on my own farm. The realities of our changing climate definitely serve as an underlying theme in my work. The work with rounds concentrate around ideas of time, aging, mortality and wildfires.
