Before rejoining academia, Horowitz worked on the production floors of bronze and iron foundries, as a mold-maker at an architectural-ceramic factory, in various furniture design/build studios, and on many construction and renovation crews across the Northeast. He brings skills learned throughout his experiences to bear in his studio and classroom alike. He is currently located in Southern New Jersey with his partner and their chickens and honeybees. Some of his public sculptures can be found in Wisconsin at Stevens Point Sculpture Park until 2027, and at Street Road Artist’s Space outside Philadelphia until 2029.
