He is currently showing his work in over 30 sculpture shows across the country and recently exhibited his work at the 2018 Venice Biennale. Jim has done public art projects such as the Fayetteville Street Renovation project, in Raleigh NC, which won the 2010 NC Public Works Project of the Year Award. “Art is a physical manifestation of an idea or event that calls forth an emotional response from the viewer. It speaks to us and evokes a chord deep within us. Good art challenges us, can make us feel righteous, moves us, soothes us, and can bring us peace.”
“Divine WindIII”, is made with Rounded pipe suggesting a nearly closed wave spilling over with flutters of pages, evoking motion and movement
