Living and working in the Fraser Valley of British Columbia, over the past twenty years artist Jim Unger’s work has evolved from small garden art to large, freestanding sculptures and wall pieces. With a background in wood-working and cabinetry, he thinks of himself as a blue-collar artist who works hard at his craft. Working primarily in metals with an emphasis on copper, Unger takes it to new and unexpected places with the addition of rich colour and warm patinas.
