Christian Verginer is a wood sculptor born in Bressanone, Italy.
Verginer is considered one of the most valid and original expressionists in contemporary sculpture carvings.
His training began by attending the sculpture department of the art school of Ortisei, and then continued at the Academy of Fine Arts in Carrara.
The subject chosen by the artist is the human figure, or rather, the human figure in its relations with other forms of life — animals nature, trees, or various objects of the world.
The material used is linden wood, which is left smooth and covered in details by unexpectedly applied acrylic paint.
Verginer remains loyal to the skill and precision of wood carving, while introducing modern, and personal subject matter.
He subtly combines children’s gazes, expressions, and movements into artworks that not only evoke people’s nostalgia for their own childhood but also awaken their long-forgotten innocence and desire to live in harmony with nature.

This was my bad. They had a couple of girl statues as well — my bad for not including them. They’ll definitely be on my Gallery page!

I really like the sculpture in the last image, with the imaginary shadow of an absent birdcage cast backward onto the wall.
