Belgian-born and raised in southwestern Ontarios's tobacco country, Jean-Pierre Schoss resides in Uxbridge, Ontario. This thoroughly captivating artist recycles discarded toxic metals such as oil drums and propane tanks to make starkly beautiful sculptures. His sense of perspective, originality and technical execution result in a strong and unique expression. Schoss' work is primitive, balanced and often very humorous.

At his acreage in Uxbridge, Schoss shares his creative process as well as his outdoor art gallery and unique graveyard of materials.
