Carmel, IN – November 6, 2023 – Today’s episode of The Omnibus Show will feature artist and designer Arlon Bayliss.
On this episode, Bayliss discusses his great adventures and breaks as he developed as an artist, his professional milestones, his work with students, and his new works.
Bayliss was trained at the Royal College of Art in London, England. For over 20 years he designed glass for factories in Germany, Italy and the United States, and his glass artwork is in museum collections worldwide. He came to the U.S. in 1990 to establish a glass program at Anderson University, which he ran with great success until 2014.
He has created public art installations for over 30 years. They include: "Helios" at Anderson University, “Light, Words, Life” for the Indianapolis Central Library, “Between Infinite Stars...” at the Indianapolis Hebrew Congregation, “Flight Wave” for the Indianapolis International Airport, and “Kawaakari: River of Light,” a four-hundred-foot-long aerial sculpture for the Circle Centre Mall in downtown Indianapolis.
His commissions for the City of Carmel began with “Beacon Bloom,” a thirty-six-foot-tall roundabout sculpture. They also include “Grace, Love and Joy,” a forty-five-foot-tall roses sculpture, and “Homage To Hoagy” at The Center For The Performing Arts, which celebrates the work of Great American Songbook inductee and Indiana native Hoagy Carmichael.
In September 2021, he created a 9/11 memorial artwork for Buchanan Group’s Oaklawn Gardens Cemetery in Fishers, Indiana, that features 2,990 suspended dog tags engraved with the names of victims.
His work has been awarded Indy Chamber’s Honor Award for Public Art twice; in 2017 for Speedway’s “Seeds of Light” and in 2022 for “Homage To Hoagy.”
He works exclusively with Bo-mar Industries of Beech Grove, Indiana. This year, they have completed three of four “Classic Cars of Indiana” artworks for the 96th Street roundabouts. They have also worked on a landmark sculpture for Zotec Partners, also in Carmel, and a tree sculpture in collaboration with Franklin Community High School students.
