Sculptor Frutos Maria exhibits from yesterday in the showroom of Orden Tercera (Elche) a selection of his artworks done in the almost forty years that he has been expressing his experiences and his feeling through iron.
His art is starting to be demanded to be exhibited in Japan, New York and London... but until that moment his artworks will be for one month in Elche. "This is my second exhibition, after the one I made more than one year ago in Club INFORMACIÓN, even if I have been working on my art since 1974", he says before the opening of the exhibition of the sample of 29 pieces of steel and iron, yesterday evening in the showroom of the ancient chapel of Orden Tercera (Elche).
Proud of his path, he recognizes that over time "it has become easier to know better the tools with which I work, get closer to the desigh and study other sculptors. In forty years I have almost not shown my work and noiw, I have decided that my way to understand art gets known... and I am surprised by the response my sculptoric art is having".
Geometric and minimalist figures set the map of sensations and feelings "that I offer, because all my work comes from my hands, from the initial drawing, the research or its interpretation while I cut the iron or weld the steel". He asserts that it is difficult for him to talk about his work and, of course, he prefers sculptures to talk for him instead. However, "what I would really like is that people coming to see my exhibitions would be able to experiment the feelings I have while I make them until I decide that they are finished. I hope people will enjoy my sculptures, recover memories and remember feelings that were forgiven" concludes Frutos María, born in Burgos, but settled in Alicante for many years.
