Manuela Zervudachi was born in London on July 15, 1963, to an Irish mother and a Greek father. Since childhood, Manuela has chosen sculpture as a means of expression. She then moved to New York in the 1980s to study at the Parsons School of New York, where she primarily learned metal working. After the United States, Manuela moved to Tuscany in 1988, to PietraSanta, a true Mecca of sculpture, home to a dozen of the world's best bronze foundries. In this legendary place, Manuela followed the teachings of her master, the sculptor Fiore de Henriquez, who taught her for three years to discover the alchemical dimension of lost wax casting and bronze. Living with her family in Paris since 1991, Manuela Zervudachi regularly exhibits in London, Paris, and Switzerland. Her work reveals her fascination with the state of humanity in its environment. She has worked successively around the themes of tarot, the symbolism of the body, time, and seeds. At the same time, Manuela regularly collaborates with interior designers and collectors to create commissioned pieces.
