Hoss Haley (artist)

Hoss Haley is a North Carolina-based American sculptor. Haley is known for his use of industrial materials and fabrication methods. He was born in 1961 and grew up on a farm in rural Kansas. When discussing how his early life in the Midwest impacts his art today, Haley shares, “Whenever I go back to Kansas, I see the decay — there are fewer grain elevators, there are fewer farmsteads. If they are occupied at all, there’s a double-wide sitting next to the farm that’s falling in. These are monuments to that history.”
