Ferrari 250 GTO LINE 50 cm Sculpture - Limited Edition of 8

My goal is to inspire a sense of wonder and appreciation for automotive design in people of all backgrounds. I strive to materialize passion for design, passion for automotive sports, passion for beautiful objects. In my approach art can express beauty, desire, and can be full of joy. ​ The easy part when I evoke sports cars, is that they’re already speed sculptures as such, and most of the people already view them as pieces of art. I try to not only capture the external beauty of cars but also convey the spirit, emotion, and stories behind these powerful machines. In this attempt to sublimate the reality, I only keep the lines that define the ADN of the model. This trait marks the difference with scale models. In the latter proportions are kept rigorously precise, while I take all freedom to accentuate and modify some aspects of the model, provided it gives an impression of speed and fluidity.  ​ The difficult part is that these simple, pure lines hide a lot of complexity. It can take many, many trials and errors before I’m satisfied with the result. It takes also a huge amount of work assembling, polishing, repairing surfaces in order to achieve a clean result, and it took also a lot of time mastering new design and creation techniques. ​ Usually, a maximum of 8 sculptures and 4 artist’s proofs are made from the same mold, all of them in different versions of marks and paintings. They are not all made at once, as I want to keep room for personalization. ​ I hope you will like these speed shapes!
