Michael Bigger's sculpture has been exhibited widely throughout the United States, in Canada, Mexico, and Guatemala City. His work is represented in numerous private and corporate collections. Michael Bigger lived and worked in Monterrey, Nuevo Leon, Mexico, as a sculptor-in-residence at Grupo Villacero, one the largest steel product manufacturers in Mexico. While there he designed and built, with help from many Villacero employees, "CONSTANCIA" , a monumental sculpture dedicated to the people of Monterrey and Nuevo Leon. "CONSTANCIA" is 40 feet long, 16 feet tall, eight feet wide, constructed of welded steel, coated with polyurethane, and weighs 19 tons.

We are delighted to have Michael as a member, and quite pleased to present these sculptures and photographs.
