Sculpture Cossuesegidiaecus

Cossuesegidiaecus is a powerful figurative sculpture by Spanish artist Faura Balsa, reflecting the artist’s distinctive approach to form, texture and emotional narrative.

The piece reveals a strong sculptural presence through its expressive modelling and richly textured surface. The material treatment creates a dynamic interaction with light, highlighting the contours and subtle details of the figure while giving the sculpture depth and character.

Inspired by classical portrait sculpture yet interpreted through a contemporary lens, Cossuesegidiaecus captures a moment of introspection and strength. The irregular surface and expressive gestures emphasize the artist’s hand, preserving the immediacy of the sculpting process and the emotional intensity embedded within the work.

Compact in scale but visually striking, the sculpture works beautifully as a collectible art object or a statement piece within an interior, adding artistic identity to shelves, consoles or curated spaces.
