Tobias's incredible pieces combine sculpted stainless steel and a variety of different stones, including Canadian granite, smoky quartz, labradorite and Mexican blue lace agate.
Since 2007, Tobias has been a professional in the field, teaching himself to weld, carve stone and wood, and work with clay. He primarily works with hard rock such as granite or basalt and stainless steel. Equally comfortable creating monumental pieces as well as more intimate objects, all of his sculptures are one of a kind. The process involves welding and carving, with no casting. The works displayed range from functional pieces to large-scale public sculptures.
