I'm Pol Ballonga, a sculptor born in Barcelona in 1996.
I started my artistic path as something experimental. I went through many artistic fields from drawing, watercolor, and oil painting, always looking for the best way to express my deepest concerns.
This search led me to sculpture, a discipline that allows me to build an artistic world in three dimensions, giving more strength and symbolism to my works. Thus being able to establish more bridges between art and the public.
Some of my main objectives in my career are to innovate and look for the best way to impact the viewer and convey my message: open the doors to reflection, and introspection and emphasize the importance of self-knowledge and how it can help us empathize and be more respectful to others.
I have been working in sculpture for almost a decade, learning all the craft processes from sketching, welding the initial structure, modeling the clay with its corresponding tools, the mold, and its reproductions.
I have exhibited my works in six individual exhibitions and more than thirteen collective ones. I have been a finalist in important awards such as the Beautiful Figurativas 2023, Bizarre Art Prize 2020, Sculpture Vilacasas Award 2018, and Kreas Art Projects 2019, among others.
I'm passionate about the infinite possibilities that art offers us, like inspiring, motivating, teaching, and learning. I like to feel that I can contribute my art to this giant and impressive world.
