About the Item
John Bizas, a sculptor with an exceptional gift for conveying profound themes through his art, unveils "Costume," a captivating sculpture of a shark, exquisitely shaped from Carrara marble and red zipper. This artwork, inspired by the concept of a zipper costume enveloping the shark, symbolizes the intersection of nature's raw power with human innovation and intervention. Born on the idyllic island of Chios, Greece, and refined at the esteemed Fine Arts Academy of Carrara, Bizas has collaborated with celebrated artists like Damien Hirst and Louise Bourgeois. His pioneering marble sculpting techniques have earned him global recognition, leading to frequent exhibitions in Europe and the US, and his works are prized in private collections worldwide. The "Costume" sculpture is a potent representation of Bizas's exploration into the darker aspects of contemporary civilization, merging the elegance of marble with the boldness of zippers to provoke thought and dialogue. By integrating the shark with a costume of zippers, Bizas invites viewers to reflect on the complexities of modern life and the impact of human actions on the natural world. Acquiring this piece is more than an artistic investment; it's an engagement with critical global issues, offering a visual and conceptual catalyst for change. Embrace the opportunity to enhance your collection with "Costume," a work that captures the essence of creativity's role in fostering a better future.
