Brief Artist Bio: Sculptor Frank Morbillo was born in Queens and raised in Long Island, NY. As a young adult he moved west, first to Montana and eventually to Santa Fe, NM. Frank Morbillo is inspired by the way the elements carve the canyon lands of the American West. It’s fitting that his process is just as elemental. He bends and twists flat pieces of steel and bronze and then welds them into seamless three-dimensional forms, first creating smaller studies and working up to towering sculptures that possess the same gravitas as the rock formations he loves. Morbillo’s work is clearly influenced both by the man-made landscape of urban architecture, and by the starker, more abrupt western landscapes which stand as evidence of the forces that shape our natural environment.
