José Pedro Croft is one of the leading representatives in the renewal of Portuguese sculpture. His career, both in this genre and in drawing, has been marked from the outset by a careful constructive process in which both his formal and personal universe come into contact. His creations are always the result of an investigation into the processes that take place within them, in which the visual, plastic and poetic dimensions of the objects created are interwoven, producing a sensation of precarious equilibrium between the stable and the unstable, and which, for the Portuguese artist, "reflects the transitory nature of the universe". His sculptures create complex dialogues with their surroundings as well as with their own form and volume by means of simple, almost minimalist structures that combine both the materiality of the object and its formal aspects.
