Internationally renowned Italian sculptor Aron Demetz makes use of traditional woodcarving techniques to create sculptures that often convey his preoccupation with humanity’s relationship to nature. Rather than presenting polished and perfected works, Demetz revels in the wood’s textures and its transformation through various natural processes. The charred human sculptures evoke feelings of vulnerability – of both the wooden materials they are composed of and the human figures they represent. Demetz’s sculptures present mankind and nature as one, reflecting the fragility of both.
