Transcending reality
With her work, Maria de Faykod
gave birth to a new artistic trend and a new
philosophy of art.
The work of this sculptor is not only the expression of a new personal style
but also the very heart of transcending reality.
She sculpts as one leads a thought, reasoning
to a universal finality.
Her work is the fruit of a deep reflection and its harmonious results are witness
of an extensive metaphysical research served by an innate
sense of volumes and shapes.
Her aesthetic conceptions stem from the tradition of "Beauty" as it was known in ancient civilisations but her creative sensitivity introduces a new aesthetic dimension.
De Faykod creates from human shapes a constant meta- morphosis that transcends those very shapes even with spiritual energies.
Transubstantiation is a key word in the concept designed by
de Faykod according to which the essence of matter is transformed by the essence of spirit.
In this view, it is the
figuration of the immaterial and spiritual energy instead of the concrete
reality that is her art.
Carrara marble becomes, in her hands, a message where matter and energy are transcending as a perpetual change into a
whole and a perception of the absolute.
