Metal sculptor Jerome Harris Parmet first “engaged” with the intriguing liquidity and malleability of metal 62 years ago as a Bachelor of Fine Arts major at Syracuse University. He took a sculpting course one semester that lingered as a dream all the more than 40 years he planned and designed corporate interiors in NYC, apprenticing at the original firms in that then new field and then as Principal of his own Architectural Interiors firm. At retirement in 1997, his unquenchable need to express and explore translated into planning, designing and fabricating steel sculptures, notably shapes, rhythms, occasionally kinetic, sometimes with junk yard cast offs, often with fresh mild metal.
