Beatty's sculptural works explore form as an intersection of the systematic and the sensuous. Using wood and steel, he constructs objects that are both familiar and enigmatic. This implied ambiguity allows the work to become visual evidence of that which is known and felt, yet beyond the conventions of language. A graduate of Massachusetts College of Art, Beatty recently completed two public art installations in the Boston area. He is also represented by the Barbara Krakow Gallery, Boston, Ma.
