Being self-taught requires many desire, perseverance and curiosity for learning of any artistic matter. It can be applied to all the skills one can acquire in life and it is nothing more than to get on with it. Many times we do not even realize the habits we acquire to equip ourselves with the necessary knowledge to apply all kinds of techniques.
Something that happens to Jago Jacopo Cardillo, a self-taught sculptor who is the ultimate example of what has been said so far. We are talking about an Italian artist who is capable of transforming marble and stone into intricate pieces that are capable of taking on a life of their own when we are in front of someone admiring the work of this sculptor.
Since he was a child, Jacopo was fascinated by art and more specifically, by Michelangelo, the Italian architect, sculptor and painter Renaissance considered one of the greatest artists in the history of mankind; these photographs show the genius of the artist.
One of Jacopo's dreams was become the modern equivalent of the sculptor, and from what we can see in his artistic works in the form of sculptures, he is on the right track.
A work in sculpture in which places special emphasis on detail and precision. His sculptures are capable of being endowed with great realism, as shown in the images provided, while at the same time influencing the sensations of the visitor to be astonished.
The naked bodies of the sculptures are full of humanity and those wrinkles that show the passing of the years. Like hands in which the cracks in the skin make up the wrinkles of what has been lived.
