Colin Gray

Colin Gray was born in 1952 and grew up in Devonshire, England, and in the 1970s he moved to the United States.  His sculptures have been exhibited at galleries in California, including a one-man show at the Riverside Art Museum.  Gray began using tools in his sculpture in the early 1970s, not only because of their visually pleasing forms but also because they seem to be imbued with a physical presence.  With their curved and twisted forms, Gray’s sculptures are humorous and energetic.
