From the visionary depths of Spanish mastermind Emilio Garcia! emerges a haunting meditation on desire and consequence. Emilio Garcia’s Once Upon a Brain beckons like a dark fairy tale carved into form—a sculptural incantation that weaves the shadow of Snow White’s fatal choice into contemporary consciousness. These new sculptures expand his Forbidden Brain series. The piece incorporates a direct reference to Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937), introducing a new narrative element around temptation, curiosity and risk. This mystical creation expands the Forbidden Brain lineage, transforming ancient warnings into tangible art.
Temptation whispers through its curves; curiosity pulses beneath its surface. Handcrafted in the marriage of resin and bronze, the work glows with an otherworldly luminescence—a crimson reverie touched by emerald phantoms, as if enchanted by forces beyond the mortal realm. A talisman for the discerning collector who understands that true art speaks in riddles and shadows.



The edition is composed of two formats: a regular version limited to 19 pieces and a small version limited to 37 pieces, both signed and numbered. With Once Upon a Brain, Emilio Garcia continues his exploration of the brain as a central symbol in his practice, engaging with its cultural, scientific and narrative dimensions.
