"My bronze sculptures cover both human and animal forms, and I depict them in my own abstract style," says Sarchi. "Salchi is a mix of classic and modern elements. He uses lines, shapes, and textures to show the movement, posture, or stillness of the body. Salch is not concerned with precise anatomy or rational function; Instead, more attention is paid to the expression of attitudes or emotions. ”
