About the Artist

As the creator of this wire sculpting process, the London native, Michael Gard, has made beautiful dancing figures. The process starts with an oil based clay sculpture that is then translated into wax. He then takes single strands of wire weaving and knotting them over the wax sculpture. The wax is melted away in a boiling water bath leaving the wire sculpture intact.

After receiving a degree in psychology and marketing from manchester university, the artist moved to the united states at the age of 22. Michael Gard is currently living in san francisco C.A. where he works on his wire sculptures and takes care of his two young children.
