Pancho Porto - Kids with - NO Reserve

Bronze and steel sculpture by the Spanish sculptor Pancho Porto, edition of 25 numbered and signed pieces.
Pancho Porto (Santiago de Compostela, 1988), began his training in the field 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, more importantly, with workshop work.

Later he enrolled at the Mestre Mateo School of Arts and Trades in Santiago de Compostela, where he studies what will later be his main discipline: sculpture. It is at this school where he already works with materials that will be fundamental in his work, such as steel or clay. Parallel, Porto continues his self-directed training and investigates other materials such as bronze or resins and their multiple uses and finishes.

After this initial training phase, he decides to set up his studio on the banks of the Sarela river, very close to where he was born. It is here where 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 it comes to communicating and narrating his story. Since then, this has been the usual tone of his works, thus adding complexity and depth to the whole of his work, with themes that touch both the social sphere and his personal experiences.
