Christian Vagn Hansen is a sculpture artist who works with a variety of metals to create large outdoor sculptures and smaller statement pieces for the home or public spaces. He is often drawn to the interesting shapes and patterns found in nature and incorporates them into his work using an abstract, minimalist aesthetic. Another major influence on Christian's style is his upbringing. He was born in Lima, Peru to Danish parents, and growing up in a Danish home cultivated Christian's appreciation for Scandinavian style, favoring clean lines and modern simplicity.
Christian uses a variety of techniques to create his pieces, including casting (pictured here), welding, and plasma cutting.
Christian has traveled extensively and has called many places home, most recently North Carolina, where he lives with his wife and children and is part of the Liberty Arts Studio and Foundry in Durham.
