A series of sculptures organized around relationships of weight, support, and balance. The works are composed of distinct elements—solid wooden logs, structures, and human figures—that are arranged in configurations where the support and the load do not coincide in a stable manner. The figures are placed atop volumes, creating situations of physical tension between the elements.

The work focuses on how these relationships define the sculptures’ presence in space. Scale is understood as a relationship between the work, the visitor’s body, and the exhibition space, rather than as a fixed measurement.

João Castro Silva is a sculptor and associate professor at the Faculty of Fine Arts of the University of Lisbon (FBAUL), where he teaches in all three levels of study—Bachelor’s, Master’s, and Doctorate—of the Sculpture program. He earned his Bachelor’s and Doctorate degrees at the same faculty.
