About The Artwork
The father, his shadow and his sword // The mother, her crown and her two eggs // Little bear is born and receives an idea and a spoon // Little bear eats his brother // The anger of the father and the protective mother // The Bear's revenge and the wake // Blood and death. Innocent or guilty? Family Matters is a turbulent story in triptych or comic format. The little teddy bear from my childhood is once again the innocent protagonist, along with the old cricket (manipulator and evil). The question that arises is already classic: does ignorance make you innocent? This is a small-sized work, delicate in its details and complex in its three-dimensionality, made with the best solid woods (woods two millimeters thick): mansonia (African walnut), cherry, maple, merbau, beech and iroko veneer in the back. This piece has six hinges and 16 hidden magnets. Wood cut with laser light and glued very carefully. This is the second piece made in 2021 with this design (the first was discarded for various reasons). This piece is part of the WoodArt collection. The author only creates ten reproductions of each design in this collection, always on demand and using different wood combinations. They may also use alternative materials like acrylic or even alter the format if the customer desires, but always with a maximum of ten reproductions per design. https://www.tomasbases.com/wood-art/family-matters The shipment of this piece is made inside a cardboard box, protected inside with extra-firm foam (density of 40 kg per cubic meter) and outside with a plastic cover. I recommend not exposing this piece to direct sunlight, high temperatures or places with high humidity: solid wood is a living and delicate material that must be protected. If necessary, any dust that may accumulate can be removed with a soft brush. The piece was only polished with natural wax: it does not contain varnishes or dyes. This piece is not intended to be hung on the wall.

With more than fifty years, artistic creation continues to be, for me, the search for windows open to the fantasy of a place of my own but strange, dreamlike and unreal. I am accompanied by the strong impact of the pop culture of the 80s: comics, cinema, music, illustration, video clips, as well as the cultural and historical imprint of the city in which I grew up, Barcelona. My career as an illustrator for thirty years has fueled my interest in investigating and making use of multiple plastic and narrative languages, always very close to digital tools. And although in the last decade I have been developing various projects of my own, it is since 2020 that I decide to separate myself from my professional field to focus solely on the development of my own projects such as the one that currently occupies me: the creation of three-dimensional works made with wood. A slow process that begins with the creation of the drawing that I then submit to a complex digital technique, to finally cut with laser light the innumerable pieces of wood that I will join to achieve the final effect. Solid woods, in turn, are selected with the design in mind; sanded, polished and prepared for the delicate cutting process. And while it's hard to appreciate the power of these three-dimensional illustrations through photos, I hope your instincts make up for it. How do I make my production? For a year I make a few designs (creation of drawings and digital adaptation). I buy, select and prepare the wood, cut it, assemble the pieces and give them the final finishes. The learning process of the 2022 collection led me to repeat almost all the pieces: I could only finish one piece for each design (except in the African mask collection). My intention for this year is to be able to finish several reproductions of each new design.
