A JOURNEY OF FINDING CLARITY
The story about Gianluca Stricker.

BIOGRAPHIE
​
Gianluca Stricker, born in Chur, Switzerland, grew up in a loving family with three brothers and a sister. As the son of a gardener, he is deeply connected to nature — an influence that is clearly noticeable in his true calling: the creation sculptures.​
The essence of his artistic process lies in the limitations imposed by material and physics. Sculpting demands a structured approach. A complex process provides the boundaries he needs to express himself and bring an idea to life. Working in three dimensions also allows him to integrate more information and details into his pieces, making each sculpture a comprehensive expression of a thought.
​​​
He often makes several attempts before a sculpture reaches its final form. Beginning with a silhouette — a symbolic representation of an initial, unrefined thought. The sculpting process more seen as the path of understanding. As he works, the silhouette evolves into a detailed figure, mirroring Gianluca’s own journey through complex ideas.
​
His sculptures offer new perspectives and beauty. "It's almost like giving some beauty back to the world," says Gianluca Stricker.
