About the Item
This architectural cement head sculpture incorporates a vaulted chestnut wood structure that arches over the top of the head, giving Project 17 a distinct spatial presence within the Proyectos subseries. The wooden element functions like an external architectural crest—part framework, part protective canopy—emphasizing the idea of the human head as a constructed dwelling shaped by structural decisions, supports and material contrasts. Its focused composition and compact scale place the work at the intersection of architectural portrait sculpture, contemporary concrete craft and collectible small sculptures.
Cast in high-hardness cement using a silicone mold, the sculpture retains the natural characteristics of the material: pores, tonal variations, visible joints, subtle abrasions and the slight irregularities inherent to handmade casting. The surface is hand-tinted with water-based pigments and sealed with a semi-matte varnish to preserve chromatic nuance and texture. The chestnut wood, treated with lasur, introduces a warm organic counterpoint that defines the upper silhouette of the piece. The cement mixture includes fine aggregates for crisp modeling, acrylic fibers to prevent shrinkage cracking, and a water-reducing agent to maintain fluidity while preserving structural integrity.
This contemporary cement sculpture aligns with key 1stDibs categories such as Small Sculptures, Figural Works and Architectural Objects, making it an ideal candidate for seasonal features like the Holiday Gift Guide. Keywords including architectural sculpture, concrete portrait sculpture and collectible head sculpture enhance its discoverability among collectors seeking material-focused, concept-driven pieces.

Jose Perozo
Jose Perozo (Vigo, 1978) is a Spanish sculptor with a background in Sculpture from Mestre Mateo in Compostela and Scenic Machinery and Set Construction from Escénica in Granada. His artistic trajectory is characterized by an exploration of the relationship between the human body and architecture, employing an industrial and scenographic language that blends the dreamlike with the structural. Perozo’s work reflects a conceptual approach, using raw materials and forms to investigate themes of identity, inhabitation, and the interplay between the physical and the abstract.
Since 2017, Perozo has presented a series of solo exhibitions that have defined his artistic identity. Notable among these are Bastións, held at the University Church of Santiago de Compostela, and Fragmentaria, developed during his residency at the Eugenio Granell Foundation, where he began to reinterpret the human body as an architectural construct. His work gained international visibility in 2020 with an exhibition at the PO.RO.S Museum in Coimbra (Portugal) and participation in global projects such as the Ibero-American Rotary Club collective exhibition in Portugal. Highlights of his recent career include the solo show ANTROPOTECTURA at Monty4 Gallery (A Coruña) in 2023 and appearances at major art fairs like Hybrid Art Fair and Estampa (Madrid). Perozo's collaborations with galleries such as José Lorenzo, La Doce, Casa das Peritas and others further underscore the evolution and depth of his sculptural practice, which continues to bridge the figurative and the conceptual.
