Based in Limana, in Italy’s Dolomite region, Luciano De Barba has worked as a sculptor since 2004 and began exhibiting through sculpture competitions in 2006. De Barba’s practice moves between figurative, abstract, and stylized forms, integrating both smooth and textured surfaces. He often incorporates rocks and pebbles as sculptural bases and explores color and burn marks as finishing details. Wood remains his primary material, though clay is central to his experiments with form and harmony. Drawing inspiration from nature and the elements—air, earth, water, and fire—his works are characterized by a sense of lightness and delicacy.
