Artworks by Veaceslav Jiglitski

Veaceslav Jiglitski works in the ancient lost-wax casting technique, creating bronze sculptures with flowing, elongated figures close to art nouveau ideas — richly detailed and carefully hand-polished. Each piece is cast to order rather than drawn from stock, staying true to this bespoke process.

His subjects come from life: real people and animals reimagined through his own artistic lens, spanning figurative female and male forms, animal and fruit compositions, and abstract pieces. "Bronze is a very plastic material," he says. "It gives a lot of space to the imagination, allows finer details than stone, and the final result is more interesting — and bronze is long-lasting."

Over 200 of his bronze works are now held in collections across 18 countries, including gifts presented to heads of state and cultural figures worldwide.
