In 2010 James Graduated a Masters degree in Aesthetics and the History of Art. Since 2003 James has worked mainly in stone, exhibiting regularly both in Ireland and internationally.<br>A notable trait in James\u2019 sculpture is the use of Marble(and other stone) in a very loose, sketch-like manner. The medium of the renaissance sculptors flippantly used to portray a fat man in his underwear, for example. The light-hearted nature of some of these expressive figures almost masks the dark humour at play. Sometimes an underlying theme can consume his practice for months at a time and a series of work can be produced, these are often serious themes; recession, religion or war.<br>\u201cMy sculptures are expressive, figurative and are recognisable by their over size hands and feet. I like to think of my work as a physical representation of an emotional response. I want my sculpture to affect people, to tap in to something intangible while also being a powerful physical presence.\u201d<br>James Horan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Click <a href=\"https:\/\/update.artdistrict.nl\/kunstenaars\/james-horan\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/update.artdistrict.nl\/kunstenaars\/james-horan\/\">here <\/a>to see more of his work<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignwide size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" data-id=\"28080\" src=\"https:\/\/update.artdistrict.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Underwater-twist-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28080\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artdistrict.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Underwater-twist-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/artdistrict.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Underwater-twist-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/artdistrict.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Underwater-twist-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/artdistrict.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Underwater-twist-18x12.jpg 18w, https:\/\/artdistrict.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Underwater-twist-365x243.jpg 365w, https:\/\/artdistrict.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Underwater-twist-600x399.jpg 600w, https:\/\/artdistrict.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Underwater-twist.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"467\" height=\"700\" data-id=\"28078\" src=\"https:\/\/update.artdistrict.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/The-line-up-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28078\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artdistrict.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/The-line-up-1.jpg 467w, https:\/\/artdistrict.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/The-line-up-1-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/artdistrict.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/The-line-up-1-8x12.jpg 8w, https:\/\/artdistrict.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/The-line-up-1-300x450.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 467px) 100vw, 467px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>These beautiful sculptures by James Horan can now be admired in our gallery.
