Pancho Porto - the affronts avenger capsulated

Bronze sculpture with niche, limited edition to 25 pieces by the Spanish sculptor Porto.
The sculpture is delivered with a numbered and signed certificate.
Pancho Porto (Santiago de Compostela, 1988) began his training in the specialty of artistic cabinetmaking at the Antonio Failde center in Ourense. At this school he had his first contact with disciplines such as carving, drawing, or modeling, and, most importantly, with workshop work.

Later he enrolled in the Mestre Mateo School of Arts and Crafts in Santiago de Compostela, where he studied what would later be his main discipline: sculpture. It is at this school that he already works with materials that will be basic in his work, such as steel or clay. In parallel, Porto continues his training independently and researches other materials such as bronze or resins and their multiple uses and finishes.

After this initial training phase, he decides to install his workshop on the banks of the Sarela river, very close to where he was born. It is here that he begins his particular theoretical and practical investigation of the relationship between the materials used in each work and the message they convey. This leads him to seek new proposals when communicating and narrating his story. Since then, this has been the habitual tone of his works, thus adding complexity and depth to the entirety of his work, with themes that touch both the social sphere and his personal experiences.
