Jonty Hurwitz's work focuses on the aesthetics of art in the context of human perception. Hurwitz's early body of sculpture was first written about by art critic Estelle Lovatt in early 2011 in an article for Art of England Magazine: "Thinning the divide gap between art and science, Hurwitz is cognisant of the two being holistically co-joined in the same way as we are naturally, comfortably split between our spiritual and operational self".
Until late 2008 Hurwitz had never produced any sculpture. In 2009 his first sculpture 'Yoda and the Anamorph' won the People's Choice award in the Maidstone Museum and Art Gallery Bentliff Prize. Later in 2009 he won the Noble Sculpture Prize and was commissioned to install his first large scale work (a nude study of his father called 'Dietro di me') in the Italian medieval village Colletta di Castelbianco. In 2010 he was selected as a finalist for the 4th International Arte Laguna Prize in Venice, Italy.
In late 2014 he released a series of "nano sculptures" under the title of ″Trust″. The works were seen by an estimated 20 million people. This series of works captured the attentions of both the scientific and art community, being cited by among others, Nature, Scientific American, Popular Science and Phys.org.
In 2015 Hurwitz was elected a member of the Royal British Society of Sculptors.
