==Early life and career==
Born in [[Tulsa]], [[Oklahoma]] in 1956, the oldest of four siblings, Joyce attributes accompanying his father on summer archeological excavations conducted for the [[University of Oklahoma]] in the 1960s as a significant influence toward choosing a life of working with his hands.<ref name="auto"/> Joyce stated in a 2008 lecture at the [[Segal Design Institute]] at [[Northwestern University]] in Chicago: "As a pre-teen adolescent, unearthing disparate shards of once complete objects, made from diverse materials, and attempting to visualize the whole form from fragments, has instructed my practice as an artist to the present day."<ref>{{cite web|last1=Joyce|first1=Tom|title=A Life of Iron|url=http://segal.northwestern.edu/news-events/events/archive/tom-joyce-life-iron.html#.Vti6RMfOOi4|website=Segal Design Institute|publisher=Robert R. McCormick School of Engineering and Applied Science, Northwestern University|accessdate=3 March 2016}}</ref> When his family moved to [[El Rito, Rio Arriba County, New Mexico|El Rito]] in [[Northern New Mexico]] in 1970, at age 14 Joyce began an informal apprenticeship with neighbor Peter Wells, a [[letterpress printing|letterpress printer]] and [[blacksmith]]. Joyce learned to handset type on foot-operated 19th century [[printing press]]es and was taught the rudiments of hand forging while assisting Wells on the restoration of historic printing equipment for the [[Museum of New Mexico]]'s Print Shop and Bindery.<ref>{{cite web|title=Introduction: Print Shop|url=http://www.palaceofthegovernors.org/PrintShop/intro.html|website=Palace of the Governors|publisher=Palace Press}}</ref> At 16, after three summers of working with Wells, Joyce was offered the blacksmith shop when Wells relocated his printing business, the former Sunflower Press. Joyce quit high school to devote himself full-time to learning the trade and developed a classically oriented curriculum of studying historic ironwork in the storage collections of New Mexico's many museums. He supported himself through a wide range of commissions from farmers, ranchers, builders, architects, designers, and other artists.<ref name="auto"
In 1977 Joyce moved to [[Santa Fe, New Mexico|Santa Fe]], [[New Mexico]], establishing a larger studio to design and produce contemporary objects for homes, architecture, and public art. He initiated an apprenticeship program in 1979 that offered training to students from the U.S. and abroad. A
Since Joyce's first lecture on his work at the [[University of Wisconsin]], De Pere in 1982, he has presented at numerous institutions, universities and college campuses throughout the United States and abroad.<ref name="auto1"/> As an invited U.S. delegate, panelist, and keynote speaker, he has participated in conferences and symposia in Canada, Czech Republic, Belgium, England, Finland, Ireland, Italy, South Africa and Sweden. In 1989, while lecturing at the First International Festival of Iron in [[Cardiff]], [[Wales]], Joyce, along with German artist Achim Kuhn, were given the Highest Honorary Fellowship into the [[Worshipful Company of Blacksmiths]] with the Addy Taylor Cup. It was the first time the award had been given to a non-British blacksmith since the charter was formed in 1571.<ref>{{cite web|title=The Company|url=
Throughout the 1990s, Joyce gradually reduced the number of commissions to focus more exclusively on series of work for galleries, including folded bowls based on formal geometric proportions, wall pieces made from remnant material accumulated from his previous commission works, and sculpture incorporating plaster, books, newspaper, wood and iron. In 1996, eighty works of art were exhibited in a mid-career retrospective, ''Tom Joyce: Twenty Years'', organized by the [[National Ornamental Metal Museum|National Metal Museum]] in [[Memphis, Tennessee|Memphis]], [[Tennessee]], the first major survey of the artist's work.<ref>{{cite web|title=Master Metalsmiths|url=
In 2001, Joyce began exploratory working relationships with several forging and casting facilities to realize sculpture and drawings on a larger scale. In an ongoing series of work titled ''Sotto Voce'',<ref>{{cite journal|last1=Reed|first1=Arden|title=Tom Joyce at Evo|journal=Art in America|date=April 2006|page=168}}</ref> alluding to the hidden origins of the material he utilizes, Joyce conceptually references the part industrial blacksmiths perform within the current era since the 19th century industrial revolution.<ref>{{cite journal|last1=Cook-Romero|first1=Elizabeth|title=Tom Joyce: Forging Ahead, Looking to the Past|journal=Pasatiempo (Santa Fe New Mexican)|date=October 13, 2006|pages=44–46}}</ref>
