Hugh Holborn
Hugh Holborn is that rare kind of craftsman who is also an auteur in his own right. He started his journey when he was 12 as an apprentice for New Mexico sculptor Jim Martin. From there he went on to study his craft at the American College of Building Art. He brings industrial materials such as steel, iron and salvaged metals to life as metallic marine life, honoring the aquatic creatures around which he lives. Growing up between the New England islands and Florida, Holborn feels blessed to have always lived boating on and swimming in the waters that now inspire his metalwork. Holborn now lives in St. Augustine, Florida with his girlfriend and their newborn twin daughters. He plans to keep creating art using historical methods, and wants to keep those methods alive by teaching them to new craftsmen and artists.
