The artist: Mario Branca
Mario Branca is a contemporary sculptor who transforms copper, iron and vitreous enamels into works of remarkable lightness. Through the direct forging of metal, he develops an artistic practice inspired by nature, memory and literature. His sculptures evoke a world suspended between reality and imagination.
Description
In Onirica attesa, Mario Branca creates a silent narrative where natural forms and everyday objects coexist in perfect harmony. The slender metal lines seem to dissolve the weight of the material, while the concrete base recalls the human-made landscape.
The chair, the nest and the snail evoke the passage of time and the idea of constant transformation. The tree becomes a meeting point between nature and civilization, memory and renewal.
Presented as part of the exhibition Living Extinction, the sculpture invites viewers to reflect on the interdependence between humanity and the natural world. Rather than depicting ecological crisis through dramatic imagery, Branca conveys it with subtlety, poetry and the expressive power of sculpture.
Conclusion
Onirica attesa captivates through its delicate balance between strength and lightness, transforming metal into a poetic reflection on waiting, transformation and coexistence.
