After 25 yrs of work in NYC, Moore moved 50 miles north to Cold Spring in the Hudson Valley. In 1998, on a mountaintop property above the Hudson River he built an 18 ft long hybrid Anagama- Noborigama (Japanese style) wood-fire kiln.
His unique clay sculptures are now arduously fired for one week in the kiln, which allows for the maximum flexibility in firing temperatures and optimizes both controlled and accidental impact from ash and other by-products of the woodfiring process. The transformation of clay through the alchemy of heat is metaphorically linked to his interest in all aspects of human existence, the actual demonstration of the interaction between flesh and spirit.
Tony Moore's work is represented in international museum collections, including the Guggenheim Museum. The British-American artist is the recipient of a Louis Comfort Tiffany Award, CAPS Grant and Sally and Milton Avery Fellowship. He received his MFA in Sculpture from Yale University.
