In this piece, Tomás Barceló merges the powerful anatomy of the mandrill with the elegant and aerodynamic lines of a classic 1940s automobile. The shape of the face, with its smooth and stylized contours, evokes the curved and polished body of a vintage car, while the textured details capture the vitality and strength of the animal. The palette of deep red tones highlights this duality, creating a work that plays with the tension between the natural and the mechanical.

Sculpture carved in plaster, based on a cast from a fine grog refractory clay model, and reproduced in resin. Painted with shellac, chalk paint, acrylics, and varnish.

17 x 23 x 9 cm | 6,6 x 9 x 3,5 in

Up to 8 numbered copies. Each copy is a unique reinterpretation of the original design, with completely different finishings, making each one exclusive within the series.

Collection: Sculpture

Tomás Barceló's passion for sculpture drives him to explore a wide range of styles and techniques, from classical and archaic sculpture to natural modeling and experimentation with both traditional and contemporary methods. His curiosity leads him to work with plaster carving, assemblage, embossing, and polychromy, combining diverse materials and innovative approaches in his creations.

Barceló not only seeks to preserve the richness of traditional sculptural techniques but also to reinterpret them in a modern context, creating a unique language that reflects both the weight of history and the freshness of constant artistic exploration.

About the artist

Tomás Barceló

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.
