Oscar Martín de Burgos: Artist Statement & Bio

Volume allows us to caress, to feel, to travel to each degree of a spherical perspective, in which we can experience the four dimensions. Time is also present, generative or degenerative evolution is part of the work itself. The fifth dimension waits beating inside us....

Oscar Martín is a Spanish sculptor and mystic who through his practice, seeks to unify past, present and future expressions of spirituality. Taking as a starting point prehistoric symbolic manifestations, he delves with psychic empathy into the cultures of our ancestors. Using different materials; namely bronze, brass, aluminum, polymers and ceramic, Burgos engages the viewer in an accessible memory that escapes from the correlative line of time and human history.
