Xavier Mascaró

Blending ancient mythologies with modern vision, Mascaró uses ancient symbols and motifs to reflect the continuity of the human condition

Fascinated by myths and legends, Spanish sculptor Xavier Mascaró (born 1965) draws from archaic iconography of the pre-Columbian era--heads, masks, boats and animal forms--and breathes new life into these motifs through materials such as iron, wood and ceramic.
