Thomas M. Miles (Philadelphia, PA) works at the nexus of multiple visual art forms, including sculpture, photography, and video. He is broadly educated having studied sociology at Baker University where he earned a Bachelor of Arts degree, theology at the Princeton Theological Seminary in Princeton, New Jersey; sculpture at the University of the Arts in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; and sculpture at Boston University, where he earned his MFA. His sculptures, Big Ben at Franklin Town (co-created with Alexander L. Generalis) and The Sign Boy, are among the most viewed works of public art in Philadelphia. He works with both traditional and contemporary tools and technologies. He was an early adopter of 3D scanning and CNC machining for enlarging sculpture. Miles over the years was a sought after problem-solver for his enlarging skills and worked directly with artists such as Frank Stella, Jeff Koons, Larry Bell and architect John Portman. He has served on the boards of numerous arts organizations and institutions, including Avenue of the Arts Inc., Philadelphia Photo Arts Center, White Box Theatre, and formerly the University of the Arts, Samuel S. Fleisher Art Memorial, and Philadelphia Game Lab.
