Esteban SERASSIO

Argentinian sculptor Serassio, featured in the March 2013 edition of Classic and Sportcar magazine, is now represented in the UK by Historic Car Art.
An early interest in metallurgy and casting started with his fathers jewellery business in Beunos Aires: "My family worked with metal for many years, and in my fathers shop I learnt how to treat metals, melt them, give them shape, solder and develop various finishes. Those early experiences taught me that there are no limits to creation and anything can be done."
"The biggest challange is to create a feeling of movement with a static very defined shape. That led me to evolve certain techniques to transmit the drama of speed."
Serassio emplys the lost wax method of casting which begins with a clay master. To control quality he has created a small foundary at home.
