Henry Bianchini

His art career spans over fifty years, and has multiple public sculptures featured in the state of Hawaii and in collections internationally.

After arriving in August 1969, he witnessed the Mauna Ulu Eruption, which gave Henry a unique sense of place.

His works utilize a number of materials, including native Hawai'ian wood, stone, concrete, steel and casting in bronze.

In 1984, he set up a foundry at his studio in Puna, and created a number of sculptures there, including bronze and glass, using the lost wax process.

[7][8] Henry Bianchini's first "one-man show" was in the Hilo Public Library's main lobby area in 1974.
