About the Item
This striking sculpture captures the essence of a wild boar, rendered with remarkable realism and creativity. Constructed from intricately welded metal pieces, the artwork exudes a sense of rugged strength and untamed vitality. Miquel Aparici has meticulously crafted every detail, from the boar's textured hide to its distinctive tusks, achieving a perfect balance between artistic abstraction and lifelike representation. The use of metallic hues enhances the naturalistic quality, reflecting light in a manner that animates the sculpture with an almost palpable energy. Standing firmly on a smooth surface, the boar appears poised for movement, embodying a dynamic force. This captivating piece not only exemplifies superior craftsmanship but also invites viewers to engage with its powerful presence, making it a compelling centrepiece in any collection. Its industrial aesthetic coupled with organic form highlights the harmonious blend of nature and human ingenuity.
Aparici's work is characterized by simplicity, since most of his pieces bring together few elements, resulting in very elegant compositions with simple lines, which together with his creativity, endow his pieces with great expressive power.
In addition to exhibiting in various galleries in Barcelona, Miquel Aparici's work has travelled to several other cities around the world (New York, Copenhagen, Fribourg, Madrid, Vienna and Milan), and has been shown at international fairs, such as ART Bodensee (Austria), ART Copenhaguen (Denmark) and Art Fair de Cologne (Germany), as well as institutions, such as the Museum of Natural Sciences in Barcelona and the Sagrada Familia Temple, which in 2005 brought together a curious selection of various pieces by the artist inspired by the animals sculpted by Gaudí. Other spaces that have recently hosted an exhibition of his work are the Cristina Enea Foundation (San Sebastian) and the Miramar Cultural Centre in Sitges (Barcelona).
