About the Item

Architectural hanging cement head sculpture combining portraiture, concrete relief and anthropotectural concepts inspired by the relationship between body and architecture. Project 21 is a unique hanging cement sculpture by Spanish artist José Perozo. Part of the artist’s ongoing Proyectos series, the work explores the idea of the human body as an architectural structure and the portrait as a space that can be inhabited, constructed and transformed. Cast in high-hardness cement from a silicone mold, the sculpture depicts a fragmented human head suspended from a fine black steel cable. Horizontal bands of blue, turquoise and grey wrap around the form, transforming the face into a layered architectural composition. These painted divisions evoke geological strata, building floors, urban façades and systems of construction, reinforcing Perozo's concept of Anthropotecture—the fusion of human anatomy and architectural thinking. The work combines the physical weight and permanence of concrete with the visual lightness created by suspension. Hanging freely in space, the sculpture abandons the traditional pedestal and functions instead as an architectural object, a portrait and a sculptural relief simultaneously. The suspended installation allows the piece to interact dynamically with light, shadows and surrounding space. As with all works in the Proyectos series, material imperfections are embraced as an essential part of the sculpture. Small pores, tonal variations, surface irregularities and subtle marks generated during casting remain visible, emphasizing the handmade nature of the work and the expressive qualities of cement as a sculptural medium. The painted surface introduces an additional visual rhythm that distinguishes this sculpture within the series. The layered blue palette references sky, sea, concrete and architectural space, creating a dialogue between structure, landscape and identity.

Cement Head with Chestnut Wood Framework, Architectural Figurative Sculpture

Cement Head with Chestnut Wood Framework, Architectural Figurative Sculpture

By Jose Perozo

Located in FISTERRA, ES

This architectural figurative sculpture combines a hand-tinted grey cement human head with a precisely constructed framework of natural chestnut wood. Created by Spanish sculptor José Perozo in 2025, the unique work is titled Proxecto XVII and belongs to his Proxectos series. Perozo approaches the human body as a constructed space: a physical dwelling assembled from layers, openings and structural fragments. Here, the head is not treated simply as a portrait but as an architectural volume whose anatomy appears to continue through wood. A curved chestnut structure rises from the crown and extends down one side of the face. Its beams resemble the exposed framework of a roof, a building section or the internal skeleton of an unfinished shelter. The central vertical element suggests a ridge beam, while the curved opening beneath it creates a visual passage between the solidity of the cement head...
