Hephaestus’ Throne

Hephaestus’ Throne was created at IRON50 by visiting international artist James L. Hayes, Principal Lecturer in Sculpture, CIT Crawford College of Art, Cork, Ireland. Hayes has a multi-disciplinary art practice, making sculptures, installations, cast iron performance works and films, as well as developing large scale sculptural commissions and public art projects. His sculptural work aims to draw out the often-incongruous relationships between finished art objects, and the industrial aspects of the processes that produce these revered objects. www.jameslhayes.ie
