Patxi Xabier Lezama Perier sculptor born in Zalla in 1967, (Municipality of the region of Vizcaya), where he lived, studied and worked. A town known for its popular culture and especially for its mythology where superstitions were widespread in malignant supernatural beings, sorcerers and witchcraft, so the natives of Zalla are called by antonomasia Brujos. The primal basic matrix vibrated in the most intimate entrails of this artist who has been trying for many years to make known Basque mythology through his sculptures of iron, stone and wood, transmitting and solving, as well as providing semblance to this type of subversive imaginary Underground world, assuming systems of values that go beyond the visual, from a historical and cultural perspective of an ancient mythology inherited from the past that transmits to future generations.
"Basque mythology, history of the myths and deities of the Basque mythological universe" with the aim of providing a global vision of Basque mythology. "Transmitting Basque mythology and explaining concepts such as art is often difficult, especially when we do not understand it ourselves". However, through reading "we introduce ourselves magically in the world of contemplation of sculpture, developing a capacity for observation, which undoubtedly awakens a future artistic sensibility". The retina of each one keeps in the memory the images of the works of art, remembering even feelings linked to them. At the same time, it helps to understand that man is a being endowed with the ability to think, with a special need to express himself in multiple ways, in which the artistic itself is found.

Patxi Xabier Lezama Perier is part of the generation of sculptors of the old rites of myth and Basque nature, central ideas that allow us to review particular accesses to the enuresis of the visionary man in the axis of the world. Obtaining a mythological symbolic world in a representative style that is capable of transforming the soul of the Basque land into a living work, coming to love what we should love, admire what we must admire, acquire what we have lost and learn what many did not know before. Ways and fantasies of reflection so that the popular expansions know where the game is going by offering a sacred glass to the trivia.
Sculptor vitally representative of the symbolic and mythological, effects and definitions of such a scenario for specters of the gods. Open and alive artistic experience in the channels of the experimental dimension, with autochthonous figures, myths and legends of the Basque country. Sculpture, as a language of remembrance, in a luminous communication that contributes to give a characteristic, personal stamp. The essence and the voluble image are combined with the mythological fables of a long sociological poem, aesthetically illuminative, to the echo of a narrative refectory. Religion for spirits. It is not to have the purpose of the original for what it constructs, but rather it is moved by the duality of communication of the form and content of the original roots. The nature of its origin is the transcendental situation of being and to her they seek encouragement, support and gratification that the sculptor hastens to lend. In the task, in the imagination and in the illumination, he finds the most precise elements to enhance the forms and put them within reach, keeping alive a faith and illusions.
Sculptor of the old rites of myth and nature, central ideas that allow us to review particular accesses to the enuresis of the visionary man in the axis of the world. Obtaining a symbolic mythological world representative style that is capable of transforming the soul of the earth into a living work, coming to love what we should love, admire what we must admire, acquire what we had lost and learn what that many of us did not know before. Ways and fantasies of reflection so that the popular expansions know where the game is going by offering a sacred glass to the trivia. Wrought iron, stone and recycled wood from old baserris, is the material that uses, living material that recovers and transforms into iconic, unpublished and exclusive works with specifically ethno-cultural features. The work in the context of the mythological culture is the singular visionary sculptor who throbs among the obstinate Basque energy. Fruit of personal maturity is surrounded by pagan inspiration. The available means of the artistic form endows it with consequences for the product of freedom that makes it unique and symbolic, while at the same time it cares for the social element from the individual restlessness. Endowed with creative personality reminds us of our primitive origins.

Basque mythology contains the archetypes from which all the knowledge of humanity has emerged. Within deep knowledge are hidden the keys to open the secret doors of all the traditions of the world.
