About the Item
Viga 1 is a sculpture by contemporary artist Tom Price. This sculpture is made of resin, tar, steel, wood, dimensions are 233 × 45 × 45 cm (91.7 × 17.7 × 17.7 in).
The Viga series marks a new phase in Tom Price's artistic journey, focusing on the use of ancient, natural materials—specifically, 15th-century wooden beams salvaged from a house in Palma de Mallorca. Attracted by their historical richness, Price reimagines these beams in a distant future where natural and artificial elements become indistinguishable. Through this transformation, he explores humanity's evolving relationship with nature and the legacy of human industry, capturing a moment where synthetic and organic forms merge seamlessly.
Encrusted with synthetic, mineral-like formations, these beams retain traces of past utility—carved notches, old nails, worn ends, and insect marks—all testament to their historical function. In Viga, Price envisions a future Anthropocene era where our material culture has integrated back into nature. Known internationally for his experimental approach to materials, Price’s works have been exhibited globally and are part of prestigious collections, including MOMA San Francisco and the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art.
Tom Price
The artistic approach of artist Tom Price revolves around materials and is in particular directed by innovative and experimental creative processes. His intriguing sculptures are capable of telling a story as well as enchanting the viewer with their visual and aesthetic impact. Tom Price is now recognized internationally, his work being praised and acknowledged by exhibitions in institutions and galleries all over the world. Several of his pieces have been acquired by private collections and museums in the United States, Europe and Asia, including the MOMA San Francisco and the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art in Kansas City. “Sometimes materials themselves provide the concept and focal point of the artwork. In this case the final form will be an expression of the possibilities and limitations of the material and the processes that have been used to manipulate them."
