About the Artist

António Bolota is a Portuguese artist whose practice is characterized by robust sculptural and architectural interventions. He is known for his direct engagement with raw, often industrial, materials such as wood, concrete, and steel, which he manipulates to explore fundamental principles of gravity, balance, and structural integrity. Bolota's work often integrates directly with existing architectural spaces, creating a dialogue between the artwork and its environment. His art invites viewers to consider the inherent properties of materials and the subtle ways in which form and mass can redefine perception of space, emphasizing the physical presence and construction of the artwork itself.
