Discover Tomás Barceló's two online courses at Domestika: Sculpture Making: Clay Modeling and Assembly, and Sculpture and Color: Polychrome Techniques. Both are available with English and Spanish audio.
Tomás Barceló, a Mallorcan sculptor and disciple of the master J.S. Jassans at the Faculty of Fine Arts in Barcelona, blends his passion for archaic sculpture with assemblage and polychromy.
Throughout his life, his boundless curiosity has led him to roles as a teacher, lifeguard, mariachi, bagpiper, film sculptor, and gallery artist, among others. His work is the culmination of his love for form and color, inspired by ancient art in his youth, fantasy and science fiction in his teenage years, and building toys from his childhood.
With each piece, Barceló seeks to restore sculpture to its place as a popular art, accessible and present in every home once again.
