Cristina Iglesias

Cristina Iglesias (San Sebastián, Spain, 1956) is a prominent sculptor known for her abstract and conceptual sculptural style that combines traditional materials such as bronze and stone with natural elements such as water and light. Her work is characterized by its exploration of the relationship between architectural space and the viewer's sensory experience. Iglesias has developed a diverse artistic practice that ranges from monumental sculptural installations to small, intimate pieces. One of her most iconic works is the "Pavilions" series, structures that fuse architecture and sculpture to create introspective and evocative spaces. Her work has achieved international renown for her large-scale commissions, such as the ceremonial gates of the Prado Museum, the Deep Fountain at the entrance to the Royal Museum of Fine Arts in Antwerp, extensive interventions in the city of Toledo, and her installation in the City of London. Cristina Iglesias has left a significant mark on the world of contemporary art, constantly exploring new forms of sculptural expression that challenge the traditional boundaries of the discipline.
