About this artwork
Sculpture made of patinated iron with oxide that seeks to express the human head from an abstract point of view. With the influence of traditional African art and contemporary artists such as Jorge Oteiza. The sculpture presents only half a head, looking for the viewer to build the rest in his mind, only suggested. An incomplete and hollow nose, a single eye and a half mouth is all that is needed to build this abstract head.

« The investigation of space and form, close to primitive and essential art, is my engine of exploration and work. The attempt to achieve a pure form that reaches the subconscious of the viewer because it is capable of summarizing something universal. »
Roberto Canduela is an experienced Spanish sculptor with extensive national exhibition experience. Spring-boarding from the idea that our bodies limit and delimit us-both physically and mentally-he composes works with anthropomorphic references and a high degree of abstraction. He additionally experiments with architectural forms that generate fascinating spaces and gaps, and constantly dances between heavy and the light.
