About the Artist | Patrick Hurst

Artist portrait of sculptor Patrick Hurst.

Patrick Hurst, born in Cambridge in 1988 and currently residing in Rome, is a contemporary British sculptor. His artistic practice is characterized by a rigorous exploration of geometric abstraction, manifested through meticulously crafted metal sculptures.

Hurst’s technique is notable for its synthesis of manual machining, computer-aided design, and industrial manufacturing processes, enabling him to achieve precise forms and flawless surfaces. A defining element of his work is the strategic use of mirror-polished finishes which manipulate light and reflection, thereby challenging the viewer’s perception of space and form. His sculptures exhibit a profound engagement with mathematical and physical principles, translated into a visual language that transcends cultural boundaries. Hurst’s work often creates a dialogue between the object and its surrounding environment, prompting contemplation on the interplay of materiality, geometry, and light. 

Hurst has exhibited at venues including Masterpiece London, Eye of the Collector, Art Miami, and Ann Norton Sculpture Gardens.

  • The pricing for Patrick Hurst’s sculptures varies. Most sculptures are made in Hurst’s UK studio or in his studio in Italy. Depending on the destination for the sculpture, prices can be quoted where they are located or delivered.

    As to the costs of the sculptures themselves, price depends on the materials used, complexity, whether the construction of the sculpture requires outside foundry assistance (and if so, how much), and the size of the sculpture. In general, Hurst’s free-standing sculptures range in price from $30,000 - $90,000. A number of exceptions exist, but this is a good range to begin with for sculptures ranging from 5-feet to 8-feet in height.
