For over 30 years, Canadian artist Timothy Schmalz has been sculpting large scale sculptures. He is a figurative artist with his pieces installed worldwide including in historical churches in Rome and at the Vatican. Although most of his work is based upon a spiritual theme, he also creates large, complex public sculptures in bronze, like Let the Oppressed Go Free. Timothy strives to create epic artwork that connects with audiences through design and details that not only touch the viewer on an emotional level, but also allows them to feel a part of the piece.
