About

One of today’s most admired living sculptors, Patrick Dougherty wields sticks and saplings to build monumental structures that echo, play, and tussle with the land. James Florio is a Montana-based photographer focused on the built environment and the life surrounding it. He works slowly, visiting a place repeatedly to gain a greater understanding of it, ultimately delivering a thoughtful and profound interpretation. Sticks was inspired by both artists’ connections to Tippet Rise Art Center in Fishtail, MT, where Dougherty has crafted work from local willows and where Florio has photographed the art and wild lands for several years.
