Jago Jacopo Cardillo is a talented sculptor from Italy who became famous because of his remarkable skills in transforming marble and stone into realistic sculptures.

This 30-year-old artist aspires to be the next Michelangelo and might actually live up to his dreams. His works are exceptionally detailed and precise despite being virtually self-taught.

In September 2017, he received the “Mastro della Pietra” award at the MarmoMac in Verona. He was also one of the speakers of TEDx Genova and at the same time he exhibits his work Facelock at the MAXXI in Rome.
