About Robert Hamric
rhamric@austin.rr.com

Hamric works with found objects creating and using interesting shapes and wrapping with colored wire, ropes, chains, horseshoes, good luck, ceremonial, and folk objects, toys, and wild game items. Religious icons are included on some works, and he created a series of fabric wrapped Christmas and theme trees. Simultaneously, he creates steel sculptures of cubic geometric shapes which are powder coated in various finishes and textured color. He is currently experimenting with the mounting and movement of the steel cubes, and recent steel sculptures are currently on view at Benini Sculpture Ranch in Johnson City, the Waco Convention Center, and Carson Art Gallery in Dallas. Hamric exhibited at the recent Dominion Sculpture Exhibition in San Antonio. Hamric is an Austin resident with an art degree from UT, Austin. Currently he divides his time between Austin and Marfa where he is refurbishing the historic Quarter House building for use as studio and exhibition space.
