Bronzes sculptures / medals
Carla's work as a sculptor and a producer of medals is truly her life. Modest to an extreme, yet in a wayward manner, she pursues her own course. She allows herself to be entranced by such things as movement and music. She is fascinated by ancient cultures such as the Etruscan world and Greece in the Antiquity. Quantity is no item; what she aims at is lasting quality and artisticity. We can find both in her sculptural solutions. Carla does not design art medals that resemble coins with a low relief, but indeed small sculptures with a high relief. The sober interior of her studio breathes serenity, so characteristic of her personal approach to work. In models and shapes she reveals emotions, making them accessible to us all. Her work has a distinct meditative radiation, reflecting sophisticated humorous aspects. And so a centuries old tradition is produced in an manner which is clearly of our time - in her statues as well as in her medals.
