Gus and Lina Ocamposilva are husband and wife team of sculptors who have obtained enormous respect in U.S.A. Self-taught metal artists, 18 years ago: He aims for the welding torch. She cuts the metal sheets. Some days, vise versa. Together they install metal sculptures around the world and share the same passion for art. Gus Ocamposilva took Murals courses at Massana School of Barcelona and painting procedures at Barcelona University, Spain (1992-1995).
During Spring of 2013 they were invited by the City of New York to exhibit three of their 13ft (Dancers of the Wind) sculptures designed to be placed along the East River Park Promenade in Manhattan.
Gus and Lina have been awarded several permanent Public Art projects commissioned by different cities and private collectors in cities such as: New York, Chicago, Las Vegas, Washington, D.C., Atlanta, Miami, among others. They also have many Juried Public Art Outdoor exhibitions throughout the states: Florida, Mississippi, Tennessee, California, South Dakota, Colorado, North and South Carolina, Missouri, Georgia, New York, Connecticut, which has given them experience working in public art; becoming the couple of Latin American sculptors with more jute in the American Public Art Market .
Their sculptures are made of strong aluminum, but appear soft and fluid. The bend forms incorporate tubes and exposed bolts. They created their own style with character using bright colors, empty spaces and balance.
Forms appear and pervade on the surface showing poignancy and verb in all their art works that become an abstraction of the figurative forms. They want to show in all their works their passion for live and nature.
