Soft Sculpture by Sergio Roger
Sergio Roger’s work is born from his constant search for inspiration in the ancient artistic representations of beauty. The artist reinterprets iconic elements of art history and decorative arts to break away with preconceived ideas by creating unique and elaborated textile sculptures.
Each of Sergio Roger’s works is Unique and is created from antique fabric remnants. The artist himself carefully selects these materials from antique collector stores. He chooses fabrics such as old linens and velvets, which carry the passing of time and bring soul to the work. For example, in his series of linen busts, he brings a new vision on this subject by replacing stone or marble with delicate pieces of antique linen. With this gesture, the artist wants to reflect on the idea of permanence and majesty that we associate with this traditional art form.
