About Nils Hansen : Working in both traditional and digital media, Nils Hansen is a very versatile Sculptor. Nils originally trained as a stone sculptor and achieved his Masters in this field, earning him numerous awards and scholarships.

Nils has been commissioned for a variety of projects from the more traditional scaling, in marble and bronze to relief portraiture modeled digitally and then 3D printed. Nils is regularly invited to various worldwide Sculpture Symposiums and participates in exhibitions around the world, where he has worked in and shown pieces in diverse materials, ranging from stone and metal to wax.
