About the Artist
Ali Baudoin is a metal sculptor. His sculptures are located globally in public and private settings. Ali says of his work, “Illusion is the magic that activates the interest in a work of art. It allows us to slip from our realities into our own dreams. The space around the forms becomes a positive shape. This compounds the tension and sculptural movement of the form.”Baudoin received a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Sculpture from the University of New Mexico, Albuquerque. He received a Master of Fine Arts degree from the University of Washington in Seattle.
