For twenty years, Heath Satow has been working on large public sculpture projects, the last fourteen of them independently. His proficiency with a variety of materials, techniques and styles has contributed to his reputation as a creative and reliable artist/craftsman. The core of his work has been in contemporary metal sculpture, primarily in steel and stainless steel.

As you can see in the images on this website, Satow has dealt with a variety of challenges and has tailored the design of each sculpture specifically to its location and the goals of the project. When creating sculpture for public spaces, all the materials he uses are durable and virtually maintenance-free, often stainless steel. His focus has always been on utilizing the natural qualities of metals and other materials to create contemporary yet inviting interpretive sculpture.

His formal training as a designer has enabled him to create sculptures that work harmoniously with their surroundings, while his instinct as an artist gives him the inspiration and creativity to produce fresh and distinctive work. His art has been commissioned for many public sites including an airport, zoos, hospitals, corporations and museums in locations as diverse as Palm Desert, Hong Kong, and Dubai. These works often become icons and points of reference for the communities in which they are located.

Satow does not create work in editions; every piece that comes out of his studio is specific to each site and one-of-a-kind. The client can be assured that they have the only sculpture like it in the world.
