Quercus

Hughes Landing
The Woodlands, TX
“Quercus” BY OWEN DIXON Initially trained as a welder at Sir Sanford Fleming College in Ontario, Canada, Owen received a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from NSCAD University in Halifax and studied at the Gerrit Rietveld Académie in Amsterdam. Owen uses salvaged steel objects, tools, car parts, and other discarded items to create what he describes as “freehand plasma cut historical patterns into salvaged tools and other salvaged steel.” Underwritten by: Jeff and Deborah Coburn
