About the Item

This exceptional artwork is currently on display and available for sale at Signet Contemporary Art Gallery and online. "Tipped Hollow" by David Sprakes is an original table-top bronze sculpture that captivates with its abstract elegance. Crafted in bronze and presented in a limited edition, this artwork showcases Sprakes' skill in transforming geometric forms into captivating sculptures. The sculpture's style is abstract yet evocative, featuring curved forms reminiscent of a bowl, delicately balanced atop a steel base. A golden edge adds a touch of luxury and refinement to the piece, enhancing its visual appeal and creating a sense of harmony. With a color palette of blue and gold, "Tipped Hollow" exudes a sense of sophistication and warmth. The interplay of these hues adds depth and dimension to the sculpture, inviting viewers to explore its intricate details and dynamic composition. Signed by the artist, this sculpture is a testament to Sprakes' creative vision and technical mastery. Ready to be displayed, it serves as a striking centerpiece for any tabletop or display area, sparking conversation and contemplation with its abstract beauty. Art enthusiasts can acquire "Tipped Hollow" at Signet Contemporary Art in Chelsea or online, providing the opportunity to bring Sprakes' captivating artwork into their own space and infuse it with its timeless allure. Artist Biography: David’s sculpture evolves through enquiry, investigation and exploration. Drawing, maquette studies, clay modelling, mould-making, casting, construction and carving illustrate the breadth of techniques involved. The tactile sensory qualities of objects and environments, both man-made and natural are a constant source of inspiration to me. Form, space, surface, rhythm, texture and the shape and the feel of things play a central role in the development and construction of my work. My analytical and experimental approach to sculpture aims to open up new ways of seeing and relating to three dimensional form for the spectator. The themes that recur are abstraction, eroded, weathered, unearthed forms and structures found and seen in the fabricated and natural world. An underpinning concept is truth to materials, allowing their visual and tactile qualities to become a key message of my sculpture.

"Engaging (18-inch)" bronze pedestal sculpture
Located in Glen Ellen, CA
Cast bronze sculpture with classic green patina on black marble base. Edition of 3 at this size. Other sizes and patina finishes are also available by commission, please inquire for more details. Pisapia's "Expedition Series," inspired by sea voyages, is about meeting life’s challenges with courage and purpose. It connects to the idea expressed by J.W. Goethe: “Character is formed in the stormy billows of the world.” Taking up life’s tasks can require one to go against the wind. The feeling of determination to achieve and continue steering through obstacles is poured into the pure forms; a dynamic balancing of the straight and curve on different axes. "With a rounded starting point," Pisapia explains, "I add on a variety of disparate angles, diverse curves, and twisting planes. I carve and smooth the surfaces, bringing out particular tensions and transitions." Flavius Valone Pisapia is an Italian-Romanian artist born in Bucharest in 1981. He completed his higher education in the UK, with an MA in Transpersonal Arts & Therapy, 2014; a Diploma in Transformative Arts, 2011; and a BA (Hons) in Film and Video, 2005. Pisapia studied sculpture throughout his higher education and appreciated several sculptor mentors in the UK. Since 2016, he has resided in India, where he is currently an artist in residence at Studio Sukriti in Jaipur. He has had several solo exhibitions in India and his artwork is found in private collections worldwide. "It's important for me to experience the world at a deeper level by penetrating the veil of the senses. Through an immersive process the essence, beauty and the pure form of an idea are gradually revealed to me. The emerging awareness flows into my artwork imbuing it with a higher reality. To achieve this awareness in my creative process, I go through three stages: imagination, inspiration and intuition." - Flavius Pisapia
