Gigi Porceddu

Gigi Porceddu is a self-taught Italian sculptor who works almost exclusively with the river stone of Sardinia in his own naive style. He began creating figures from the surrounding countryside as a child, using only a knife and screwdriver, and still uses simple tools when working on his sculptures.

Porceddu reproduces the faces of Southern Sardinia in the form of caricatures, but the aim of this project is actually to describe and preserve the genetics of Sardinians.

Porceddu's favorite subject is government officials, whose caricature images have more than once led to conflicts between the artist and them.
