This child's face, carved with an almost archaic simplicity, conveys a quiet melancholy. The cracks and textures on its surface resemble weathered wood, as if salvaged from a shipwreck or unearthed from an ancient dream. The sleeping expression—almost ritualistic—suggests silence, stillness, and endurance. It is a fragile yet powerful image, speaking of the passage of time, of lost childhood, and of the beauty that endures even in decay.

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.

8 x 11 x 5 cm | 3 x 4 x 2 in

Original with Variants

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: Portraits

Tomás Barceló's "Portraits" collection brings together a variety of sculptural representations that capture the essence of humanity in all its forms, from busts and full-body figures to intricate reliefs. In these works, the influence of his mentor, J.S. Jassans, is particularly evident, reflected in the delicacy of the forms, anatomical precision, and the emotional depth of each face and pose.

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.
