Tutor, Ambrose Burne gave his students, a ‘warm-up’ challenge to create something interesting out of a small rectangular piece of steel, 150mm x 20mm x 20mm
(5.9 x 0.79 x 0.79 inches). They each had three weeks to make something out of the piece, without adding anything else, and they posted photos of their
completed work onto the course Instagram account, @herefordanvils, using the hashtag #150mmchallenge.
The challenge ‘went viral’ - catching the interest of blacksmiths from around the world, resulting in an exhibition that toured Europe to much acclaim. The artworks
vary from playful figurative models to functional tools and abstract sculptures, demonstrating a diverse, creative and technical exploration of form and concept
made in response to the challenge.
“By bringing this to venues across the United States, ABANA is providing opportunities for the public to see firsthand the #150mmchallenge’s myriad of
forms coaxed from a uniform piece of steel. This exhibit speaks to the endless creativity and skill of modern-day artisans who use traditional blacksmithing
techniques to manipulate steel to magnificent effect.” - Leigh Morrell, President of ABANA
The #150mmchallenge continues to connect an international community of blacksmiths; revealing a rich diversity of practice and highlighting the value of social
media in developing discourse across a dispersed making community.
The #150mmchallenge is a celebration of process, material,
creativity and ingenuity in forged metal that began with a
student project in the UK. The exhibition displays a curated
collection of 150 metal objects, selected from over 400 pieces
created by amateur and professional blacksmiths from around
the world.
The #150mmchallenge has its origins in the charming, historic
cathedral city of Hereford, UK. With around 55,000 inhabitants,
it is surrounded by the green rolling hills and hedgerows of
traditional English agricultural land and the distant Welsh
Mountains. It’s a fitting setting for the blacksmithing capital of
the UK and is home to the country’s only Artist Blacksmithing
degree course at Hereford College of Arts, where the
#150mmchallenge was first conceived.
