Ryan Lamfers, M.F.A.
Biography

Ryan Lamfers was born and raised in the Midwest. He earned his BFA in sculpture and painting at Kansas State University and his MFA in sculpture at Arizona State University. His inspiration is drawn from a variety of outdoor adventures which afford him the time to reflect on the changing relationship of a mechanized society and its impact on nature.  Ironically the work employs metal fabrication and foundry techniques coupled with woodworking to create large-scale sculpture addressing such environmental issues as water, air, noise and visual pollution.  Ryan exhibits his work nationally and is currently a Senior Lecturer at the University of West Georgia.
