Art with Purpose: The Work of Nicholas Yust

Nicholas Yust is an internationally collected abstract metal sculptor working out of Cincinnati, shaping aluminum, copper, bronze, and stainless steel into layered, light-catching compositions. He calls his work “an expression of energy and its relation to emotion”, and each year, he gives back by donating original art and proceeds to causes he believes in. This collection continues that tradition — every purchase helps support the causes listed at the bottom of the page.

Purchases from this collection will help support:

Homes for Our Troops: building specially adapted, mortgage-free homes for severely injured post-9/11 veterans.

When you bring a piece of Nicholas Yust’s work into your home or office, you’re not just adding a striking, one-of-a-kind statement to your space — you’re extending his commitment to give back. Every sale ripples outward: to a veteran finding stability in a home built for their needs, to a family facing a child’s illness, to someone who needs to know they’re not alone, and to animals waiting for a second chance. Art that moves you, doing good long after it leaves the studio.
