This sculpture depicts a baby in a fetal position, with subtle mechanical details that barely disrupt its organic form. The ambiguous expression and the surface treatment, with greenish tones and rusty highlights, evoke a quiet unease: is it a living being or an artificial creation? The piece invites reflection on the beginning of life in a world where the biological and the technological can no longer be clearly separated.

Sculpture modeled in clay, carved plaster, and repurposed objects; reproduced in resin. Painted with shellac, chalk paint, acrylics, and varnish.

6 x 8 x 26 cm | 2 x 3 x 10 in

Unique Piece

An exclusive and irreproducible work of art, singular and unique.

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.
