About the art
Artist statement
Among all the media I experimented, ceramic is the one that let me express myself the most. In particular I work with porcelain Paper Clay, a mix between porcelain and paper, a real ceramic technique that allows great freedom and enabled me to find a new and personal way to express myself.
All my work concerns fragility and lightness. It's a non-conceptual approach that investigates the chances of the material, leading to its extreme consequences. The “Oblivion” series is a sort of spinoff of “Arcanae exuviae”. It consist in porcelain bowls filled with many very thin crumpled up sheets made of white porcelain. This artworks are related most with sentiments and what remains of them after a long time, fixed in a shape that let us to remember again and again...very thin sheets of memory as a treasure that will never fly away.
The extreme lightness of my works wants to remember the fragility and the extreme beauty of Creation as well.
