Boris Bally
Bally is a Swiss-trained goldsmith working as a contemporary metalsmith and designer in Rhode Island, where he maintains his studio business, Bally Humanufactured. His work is a disciplined body of objects which vary from eccentric through formal to humorous, provoking thought and reflecting on some of the distortions of our ordered world. His practice has become an amalgam of the skills of an able industrial designer, a gifted craftsperson, a discriminating sculptor, and a cultural critic.
