Metal artist Sarah Stork joins The Fabricator Podcast to talk about creating intricate, lifelike sculptures using welding techniques.
The Texas-based artist discusses how she stumbled into sculpting through a welding class and has since honed her skills to produce detailed dozens of works like a blue heron with thousands of individually welded feathers, large intimidating cassowary, endless amounts of stingrays. Stork also chats about how she relies on hand tools, hammers, and welding processes like MIG and TIG to capture the organic forms of her animal subjects.
Stork expresses her passion for sharing her knowledge and encouraging young people, especially women, to explore welding and metalworking as creative outlets. She views events like FABTECH as valuable opportunities to connect with other artists and continue learning.
At the top, Jordan Yost of Precision Tube Laser joins us again to talk about his own venture into metal art, including a piece he created for our podcast studio.
This episode was recorded at FABTECH 2024 in Orlando, Fla.
