________________________
Lorenzo is a visual poet who uses sculpture to convey his ideas about concepts that are sometimes difficult to argue. He often uses hand representations to communicate these concepts.
In this work, the artist shows us his own head at the moment of being modeled by his hands.
On many occasions, Lorenzo’s works are accompanied by a text written by the artist himself that completes the work and explains his source of inspiration.
TEXT WRITTEN BY LORENZO QUINN:
SELF-PROTRAIT
With this sculpture I wanted to portray the importance of self-criticism. Here there are my hands emptying my head, looking for new ideas in the clouds. We need to be able to dream and within the dreams find the inspiration to create dreams for the ones who are awake.
