A mythological narrative sculpted in monumental bronze
Artist
Uldis López — Master Sculptor and Founder
With over four decades dedicated to monumental sculpture, Uldis López combines classical tradition with contemporary sensibility. His mastery of the lost-wax technique and deep knowledge of human anatomy allow him to create works that capture moments of maximum dramatic tension.
Project History
Narrative Context
Mikaela’s Abduction represents one of the most powerful themes in sculptural art: the moment of supreme tension between opposing forces. The composition captures the precise instant where drama reaches its climax, with figures intertwined in a dance of frozen movement.
The Artistic Challenge
Sculpting an abduction scene requires mastering the representation of dynamic movement in a static medium. The artist had to solve complex problems of compositional balance, tensed anatomy, and the emotional expression of multiple figures interacting at a moment of maximum intensity.
Casting Process (S3)
The complexity of the intertwined figures demanded a meticulous casting process. Each limb, each fold of fabric, each tensed muscle was cast with millimetric precision using the traditional lost-wax technique, preserving every detail of the original modeling (S1).
Legacy and Impact
This piece represents the technical mastery achieved after decades of practice. The ability to capture violent movement and intense emotion in permanent bronze demonstrates why collectors and galleries trust RunArt Foundry for their most ambitious projects.
