Wax Sculpture “the Face” By Alessandro La Motta

The Magic of Sculpted Wax

The wax sculpture “The Face” by Alessandro La Motta immediately captivates with its warm glow and delicate realism. Wax, as a material, offers nuances that bronze or marble cannot achieve. The face appears to breathe gently in the shadows, alive with quiet intensity.

Alessandro La Motta: An International Career

Educated between Italy and the Mediterranean, La Motta was invited to the 54th Venice Biennale, and has exhibited in Barcelona, at Lubelsky Gallery in New York, the Universal Expo in Shanghai, and in Hebron, Jerusalem, and Dakar. His works open a compelling dialogue between classical mythology and modern sensitivity—as clearly seen in this timeless face.

Technical Features and Amber Effect

The sculpture is in excellent general condition, measuring 38 cm in total height including the base, with the head itself being 27 × 14 cm. Thanks to wax’s natural translucency, backlighting creates a stunning amber effect, giving the surface a glowing, golden vitality. Thus, the sculpture evolves with the lighting: matte during the day, ethereal by night.

An Investment in Contemporary Art

Acquiring “The Face” means choosing a unique, ready-to-display piece perfect for refined interiors, art galleries, or private collections. Although wax is delicate, it’s long-lasting when well protected. Mounted on a solid base and coming straight from the artist’s studio, this work guarantees authenticity and increasing value.
