Mass

This is a part of my new series "Mass".
Work that talks about the role of people stuck in a pyramid structure, where life, love and passion are not in the first place.
It is a theme that I have been following for a long time and that never ceases to be in my thoughts, it evolves and takes on unexpected characteristics.
Now I feel a strong concern about what will happen, about the choices that will be made for the good of the economy, our only thought.
I am worried about an impulsive response to this situation, not thought with intelligence and wisdom.
We must change by giving the right value to what is really important, destroying the selfish barriers that are within us.

Indifferents

Sensations, deep human emotions.
Individuals submerged by stimuli that they don't understand, dissociated from life resulting profoundly indifferent.
Beings with stolen souls; immobilized and imprisoned. Without hope or passion, strength and spirit.
Faces, bodies and emotions stolen by the passing of time, under a veil of resignation.

There are days when my mind wanders in search of a purpose, a reason to face the day, overwhelmed by the realities of the world I close myself still in the blankets. Sitting and heavy, I abandon myself, letting myself be carried away by the passage of time.

I was in the studio, and while looking for the right marble for this sculpture I came across a beautiful red spot of a natural gap.
The piece was beautiful, a pure white and warm enriched by a vein that changed its color from a red to a warm gray typical of Calacatta marble.
I realized that it was perfect for what I wanted to do and to try to express a series of feelings that I felt on me. The vein and the red color could veil the figure and enrich it with the wonderful casualness of nature.

With this sculpture I let myself be fascinated by an old beam of a house, playing with the natural color of wood and the varnishes that have been used over time.
I wanted to focus on the strong egoism and self-centeredness that is a fundamental part of the human being, the fruit of our social structure, and the feeling of being imprisoned in a structure that we built a long time ago and which is becoming an integral part of our being. An apathy and resignation that makes us helpless in front of the cage of veils that has bound us for a long time.

When I thought about the sculpture "Tamed" I was immersed in a series of thoughts. I felt imprisoned tied by invisible ropes that I didn't want to see, I felt like a piece of wood carried down the crest of a river. A strong feeling of having to make choices, but without understanding why and on behalf of which "normality". I wanted to give the feeling of an imprisoned and defenseless individual, a person who feels tamed by something above him that he cannot understand and know.

When I thought of the sculpture "Tamed" I was immersed in a series of constant, nagging thoughts.
I felt imprisoned bound by invisible ropes that I didn't accept to see, I felt like a piece of wood carried by the crest of a river that I could not see. A strong feeling of having to make choices, but without understanding why I had to do it or for what "normality". I wanted to make the feeling of an imprisoned and helpless individual, a person who feels tamed by something he cannot understand and know.

When I started writing "Fell I" in marble I let myself be swept away by the shapes of a face that had to be veiled by something, or consumed by nature, time, rain, wind. Finding the simplification of lines and surfaces was not so immediate, it was like a continuous challenge between simplifying shapes and giving power.

Finding the simplification of lines and surfaces was not so immediate, it was like a continuous challenge between simplifying shapes and giving power. After making the first marble version, I wanted to look for a stronger contrast, the smoke-blackened clay surface seemed the right choice. I played with the surface and the details until I cooked it and glazed it with the raku process.
The iridescent, almost metallic black of the smoke made the sculpture very intense and of strong impact.

This sculpture has been important in my research, it made me think and appreciate how causality can become a fundamental part of my work. Once the clay modeling was done, an incredible curiosity consumed me, I wanted to see it finished in my hands. The technique for making a ceramic sculpture needs time and patience, characteristics that were far from me at that time.
When I opened the kiln the sculpture was in a thousand pieces, after a bit of tension and sadness | managed to find the beauty of that situation. The lines of the break, so beautiful, sinous and decisive, have become fundamental, and without them this sculpture would not have the same power.

In "Feel III" I let myself be fascinated by the natural beauty of this marble, its veins and its colors.
A stupendous marble, which on one side is very cold almost blue and on the other very warm almost orange. My intent was to represent a face that contains two different personalities, one of pure essence, creativity and feelings and on the other hand the coldness of the expectations of our way of life created by a society based on the market and the economy, and where everything related to feeling is not considered in the least.

A man immobilized and lacking morality, profoundly careless and devoid of any reaction, helpless before that which awaits him. A vision of what will remain of the man of our time, like the fossil of an empty individual, veiled with a plastic surface, of which only the shine of the stone will remain.⁠

This drawing is made like many of my drawings on paper recovered from a typography. It is a very beautiful paper to draw on, rich in a history, a past, a time. On the back there may be text books, comic drawings and ink stains and printing machine oil. I like to use this type of support, I feel that its past somehow adds something to what I do.

Natural Inspirations

The beauty of nature, the simplicity of its lines and compositions.
The beauty of a ray of sunlight that strokes a surface making it luminous, warm.
Complex yet simple, in harmony and balance, full of shades of light and dark often barely perceptible they are so delicate, sometimes strong and defined.
Softness and rigidity generate a continuous and natural desire for observation, a never­ending source of curiosity and emotions.

The beauty of nature, the simplicity of the lines of its compositions. The beauty of a ray of sun that caresses a surface making it bright, warm. A nature that evolves and changes always fascinating and incredibly strong. A plant that grows on asphalt, a tree that grows in hostile terrain, changing in a continuous search for the survival of the species.
With my series "Natural Inspirations" I want to create a bridge between nature and man, between natural and artificial.
We are the world, we are nature.

These sculptures try to create an exchange between something natural and something artificial. A union, a collaboration, a coexistence, something that we will have to start considering, something to accept. We must stop feeling superior to everything and everyone. We are part of nature, we do not possess it and we are definitely not superior. We are composed of the same elements, the same substances. Finding a balance is the only solution to feel fundamental again and finally part of a whole.

Sometimes I feel oppressed and crushed by the rules of formality and the enormous bureaucratic chaos of our society. Chaos that eats our time and takes away our uniqueness and the beauty of being all the same and all different from each other.
A day like today I had enough, I wanted to release all the tension that I felt on my shoulders. I took the first piece of wood in front of me and I started working. More I worked more I felt my head was becoming lighter and my spirit and impetus were finally finding a balance.

When I work on this series, I let myself be carried away by the compositional lines, the shapes and the beauty of the material I am using. These are true liberating moments where my connection with the work that is being born reaches an intense depth. The thousand details that nature offers me and that remain in my mind, are translated and transformed by my hands.
