My name is Margherita (Ma\u0142gorzata Maria) Winnik. I was born in 1974 in Wroc\u0142aw, and from an early age I felt that the world spoke to me through forms, textures, and light. I studied passionately at the Academy of Fine Arts in Perugia, where I defended my thesis on the materiality of visual language, and then perfected my sculpting techniques, especially metal casting, at the University of Barcelona.\n
\n
\nMy work is always directed toward the invisible, the spiritual \u2013 hence my fascination with contemporary sacred art.I create works that penetrate sacred spaces, as well as the intimate world of homes of those who desire to experience beauty. Where art is meant to be a spiritual experience, a subtle sign of the presence of beauty and faith in everyday life\n
\n
\nMy work is a dialogue with space and light, a search for harmony between architecture and form, experimenting with materials and technologies. I work in metal casting (lost wax casting, microcasting, sand casting) and ceramics, creating glazes and decorations that transform volcanic stone into almost magical objects.\n
\n
\nMy artistic journey is an encounter between matter and the ephemeral, a place where sculpture and installation become a story about man, his search for meaning, beauty, solace, and truth. My works arise from contemplation. From silence, which teaches us to see. From attentiveness to light, which reveals what is fragile and moving. From the need to give shape to what we carry within ourselves: loneliness, desires, memories, longing, faith, the memory of time. I am interested in the moment of inner movement in the viewer, when matter ceases to be just matter and becomes an experience. When the gaze lingers a moment longer. When the silence deepens. I create sculptures and installations out of a need for dialogue, with God,with myself, with other people, with the space that invites us to pause. For me, art is a form of presence.\n
\n
\nI collaborate with world-renowned Italian foundries.\n
\n
\nI have lived and studied in Wroc\u0142aw, Barcelona, Perugia, Gorizia, and Frosinone, where I currently create, allowing places and their energy to shape my works.\n<\/p>\r\n <\/div>\r\n \r\n \r\n

For me, the voice of a critic is more than just an evaluation; it is a light that is reflected in my forms and colors. Their reflections allow me to see nuances that I might not have noticed myself and give my work new dimensions.

\n\n\nOn this page, I have collected the words of experts who have accompanied me on my artistic journey. Each opinion is like an echo of an encounter, like a subtle bridge between my world and the world of the audience.

In her poetic declaration, Margherita Winnik affirms an almost obsessive interest in what, in sculpture, denies forms the status of objects. At the same time, she introduces a natural morphology in which neither the presence of the hand nor the technical processes leading to the creation of the work can be discerned. Furthermore, the Polish artist possesses a precise concept of emptiness: it is an experience leading to fullness, a narrow gateway that opens to that which nourishes the materiality of artistic language and the practicality of experiencing reality. The results: traces that evoke primordial clay and fragments of cosmogonic events, signs and gestures developed beyond the historical idea of form and predating even the archetypal model.\nDespite this striving for primordiality, Winnik's traces have nothing organicist about them. Rather, they preserve an energy that imprints itself on the reality of the finds, focusing a creative attention that has nothing to do with the energetic mythology of Poverism. For here, force is provided as a heroic variable within an economy that is always close to revealing it, causing it to explode at the moment of maximum tension.<\/p>\r\n <\/div>\r\n \r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n \t \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t \t

Margherita Winnik's work, titled \"Intimacy,\" is an aluminum alloy that encapsulates the story of a random process in which the artist, with aesthetic foresight, combined organic materials\u2014such as leaves, bark, and fabrics\u2014with Styrofoam and wax to create a whole, upon which a mold was built. Liquid metal was poured. As it burned, it left traces of burnt elements in the metal. The final result retains its identity, which continues to live on as a natural substance, with a strong, tangible surface: a kind of highlighted tree bark that, in cracks or widening crevices, shimmers with extreme reflections of light. Closely observed, the work exudes a sense of spatiality that transcends its form, and the end result is that the work lends itself to a variety of construction applications: vertically, it can transform into a lysine covering, and horizontally, it can become a spectacular wall rib.<\/p>\r\n <\/div>\r\n \r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n \t \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t \t

My work constantly seeks new spaces and challenges. Each project is a separate world\u2014from sacred sculptures, through installations in public spaces, to works for the homes of those who want to bring art into their everyday lives.

\nOn this website, you will find my current projects that I am working on. Each work is a carefully thought-out concept, based on a dialogue with matter, light, and space.

\nFor those who want to support the creation of new works, I have prepared the possibility of co-financing projects. Thanks to your help, each project can take shape and reach spaces where art becomes an everyday experienc

\nCurrent support opportunities:

Con tecnologia \"paypal\"<\/section>\n <\/a>\n<\/div>\n\n

\nEach work is created through deep listening and a sincere desire to give shape to intuition, inspiration, and an inner calling.\nUnlike the great works of the past, sacred art that is not commissioned today has increasingly rare opportunities to be realized. Patrons and institutions that cover the costs are becoming increasingly rare. What remains is the artist, their vision, and the responsibility, both material and spiritual, for its realization.\nWith every gesture of support, large or small, you can directly contribute to the creation of a work by helping to transform wax into bronze, so that a work without a commission can speak to the hearts of all.\nIf you feel this project resonates with you, please support us via the
