Seán Savage Ferrari sculpts the textures of landscapes, weaving together craft, found objects, and organic matter into evocative, memory-laden forms. He assembles materials from both urban and rural environments, merging natural and cultural elements to create sculptural works that carry personal and collective memories.

Through this practice, he emphasizes cycles of reuse, ecological awareness, and the interplay between human activity and the natural world. By blending traditional craft with contemporary methods, Savage Ferrari constructs tactile, immersive environments that encourage contemplation, highlighting the dynamic relationships between material, memory, and the ecological communities in which they exist. ...
