Hoss Haley

Hoss Haley

Hoss Haley (b. 1961, Dodge, Kansas) is a conceptually focused American sculptor and painter creating and residing in Asheville, North Carolina. A Kansas native, Haley studied blacksmithing for many years in Texas and New Mexico before turning his focus to sculpture.  Despite a long career and many travels, his creations clearly depict the power and influence, both conceptual and aesthetic, of the western landscape of his youth.

Through decades of sculptural process, Haley’s work has discernibly evolved from literal to theoretical, while simultaneously shifting in scale from intimate to monumental. Master metalworking and expertise in creating large format sculpture have culminated in several major collections and commissions in the public art sector, including: Charlotte-Douglas International Airport, Charlotte, NC; Pack Square Conservancy, Asheville, NC, Valdosta State University, Charlotte Area Transit System, South Corridor Light Rail, Charlotte, NC; Sam Houston State University, Huntsville, TX; Courthouse Plaza, Charlotte, NC, and Lowe’s Corporate Headquarters, Mooresville, NC.
