Leonardo Pappada

Leonardo Pappada’s sculptures have been exhibited internationally in Italy, United Kingdom, Poland, France and
Romania. He is winner of the Best Sculpture award and Best Young Artist Award from Il Grifone
as well as winner of the International Art Exhibition Award by Big House Art Contemporary,
China. His artwork handles elements that make up alchemical transformations. Melting metals,
kneading colours, shaping, searching chromatic and compositional balances, daring difficult
balance in matter challenging gravity, are the recipe of Ancient Art but immersed in the present.
