The Bark Angel is a sculpture that celebrates the essence of Val Gardena craftsmanship through a minimalist and contemporary artistic language. This angelic figure stands out for its powerful material contrast and essential silhouette.

The angel's body is carved from a piece of natural wood, preserving the organic and rough texture of its bark. This unconventional choice transforms the simplicity of raw material into an object of sacred and domestic art, making each piece intrinsically unique. The stylized conical shape, tapering upwards, culminates in a smooth, featureless oval head, inviting silent contemplation.

Completing the work are the symmetrical wings made of metal with a burnished and patinated finish. The rusted surface of the wings creates a splendid dichotomy: the solidity and cold sheen of oxidized metal meet the warmth and earthly vitality of raw wood. A true masterpiece of material balance, masterfully forged by our artisans, a testament to the superior quality of wood carving in Val Gardena.

1) Iconographic and symbolic elements: Angel, wings, wood, Val Gardena.
2) Religious meaning: The Angel is a divine messenger and protector (Guardian Angel). The wings symbolize its celestial nature and the ability to fly between heaven and earth. Wood, a natural material, evokes creation and artisanal tradition, recalling the authenticity and sacredness of the product. The origin from Val Gardena, renowned for wooden sacred art, reinforces the spiritual value and artisanal quality.

The angel, a central figure in many religious traditions, is a divine messenger, a link between heaven and earth. Its veneration is rooted in ancient Jewish and Christian beliefs, where angels are described as spiritual beings endowed with intelligence and will, at the service of God. They are often depicted as protectors, guides and consolers, present in the crucial moments of sacred history, from the Annunciation to the Resurrection. Their beauty and purity make them symbols of hope and faith, reassuring figures who watch over humanity.
