Self-Taught Sculptor Creates Incredible Realistic Sculptures And Dreams Of Becoming The Modern Michelangelo

ADVERTISEMENT

Jago Jacopo Cardillo, 30, is an incredible self-taught sculptor from Italy who transforms marble and stone into intricate lifelike pieces and has won over thousands of people due to his talent.

Since he was a child, Jacopo was fascinated with one of the greats, Michelangelo, and dreamed of becoming a modern-day equivalent of the sculptor. And he’s for sure going in the right direction.

His sculptures are extremely detailed and precise, the artist manages to create pieces that look not only realistic in shapes, bus also light and flowy.

Take a look at some of his works below.

    Fascinated by music, movies and sitcoms, I'm passionate about social media and can't live without the internet, especially for all the cute dog and cat pictures out there. I wish the day had about 40 hours to be able to do everything I want.

    yeah. Michelangelo did s**t that was idealized, pretty much the epitome of his time. This stuff is WAY too naturalistic to compare. As far as I'm concerned, this stuff is much more interesting.

    You obviously are not that familiar with Michelangelo's work. Please tell me that's why you make such a ludicrous comment.

    impressive technique. But... reallity is... nowadays, there are tons of naturalistic, hyperealistic artists and Michelangelo was the only one at his time with that amount of talent. In XXI century there are no "stars" we are too many on the world. Besides, Michelangelo was not a great artist because he made marutralistic sculpture, but because of what was said with the technique...
