AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
The sculptor Javi Villarroel Seoane reinterprets in this work the goddess Aphrodite, timeless symbol of beauty, love, and harmony, taking her into a deep dialogue between the classical and the contemporary.
Her complex fabrication does not go unnoticed: the sculpture is built from dozens of pieces with labyrinthine shapes, assembled with precision and crafted individually, revealing a meticulous and deeply artisanal process.
The play of light and shadow becomes an essential element of the work: it not only accentuates the volumes, it provides dynamism where perception changes according to the angle and the light intensity.
Beyond its visual impact, the work invites reflection on the fragmentation of beauty in contemporary times: an Aphrodite reconstructed from multiple perspectives, suggesting that perfection does not reside in classical unity, but in the complexity and diversity of its parts.

Finish: Black and silver

More than steel, more than art:
Javi Villarroel Seoane develops his work through different sculptural avenues and furniture design, finding in surreal figurative sculpture the deepest expression of his creative identity. From this vision he builds a universe of his own where technical precision and artistic sensitivity converge to transform steel into pieces of great expressiveness, balance, and sophistication.
His bond with metal has been forged over more than twenty years (encompassing everything from mechanical fabrication design to underwater welding, among many others), allowing him to push metal to complex physical limits.
This artistic language has quickly positioned him as one of Spain’s sculptors with the greatest international projection.
His work is part of private collections in twenty European countries, the United Kingdom, and Asia. He has participated in auctions alongside major figures in art history such as Pablo Picasso and Joan Miró, and his work has been featured in specialized publications such as Ars Magazine and international art platforms like The Edge of Humanity Magazine. Furthermore, his inclusion in the reference collective book "Euskal Eskultura Gaur II" affirmed his status as one of the renovators of the vanguard of contemporary Basque sculpture.
His exhibition journey includes numerous shows at the national level, among them the selective collective exhibition "20 eskultore", staged at the institutional headquarters of the Juntas Generales de Bizkaia (Bilbao, Bizkaia) and the exhibition "Apoteosis del Ser Humano", sponsored by the BK ETL Global fiscal group, held at the Grand Hyatt La Manga Club hotel, Cartagena (Murcia).
His work has been recognized with an entrepreneurship award granted by the Bilbao City Council, presented by Mayor Juan Mari Aburtu.
His technical prowess is unquestionable; his language, unmistakable.
