About the Item
Carlos Ramos, “Mensagem”
Wood and Iron Sculpture
Portugal, Contemporary
Dimensions: 53 x 50 x 46 cm (20.9 x 19.7 x 18.1 in)
Carlos Ramos’ Mensagem is a compelling contemporary sculpture that seamlessly merges natural materials and conceptual depth. This mixed-media piece is handcrafted using wood and iron, creating an expressive forest of abstracted tree forms. Each trunk is composed of hand-carved wood, subtly whitewashed and inscribed with handwritten Portuguese text that wraps delicately around the surface, offering a poetic element to the otherwise robust structure.
The iron leaves and bindings are forged and shaped with a raw, textural quality, showing signs of oxidation and purposeful imperfection. The juxtaposition of the rusted iron against the light wood evokes a narrative of memory, resilience, and cultural rootedness. The sculptural group is mounted on a solid wooden plinth, reinforcing its architectural presence while highlighting the artisanal precision of the work.
Carlos Ramos' work often explores the relationship between language, material, and landscape. In Mensagem, this dialogue manifests in a visually rhythmic composition that oscillates between fragility and strength, transience and permanence. The piece invites close inspection: each angle offers a new interplay of shadow, text, and texture.
Perfectly suited for collectors of contemporary sculpture, literary-inspired art, or nature-influenced forms, Mensagem is a singular piece that carries with it not only visual beauty but also a layered semantic and emotional resonance.
