Original artwork description:

This work of art is a refractory clay sculpture.
Working with clay creates in me very deep feelings, it gives me physical pleasure, in particular this type of clay. Refractory clay is a very particular, grainy clay, when you work it you have the sensation of dipping your hands in the wet sand at the seashore.
Working clay is very sensual and primordial.
In this sculpture I try to represent the map of a New World and it connects to the series of abstract artworks entitled New Possible Worlds. During the lock-down in Rome, in my home-studio I felt the desire to change the title.
"As poetry new life was born".
I like it and it is much more poetic!
Each work of art has a name that comes from the heart and is like the first name of a child.
This contains a beautiful message of rebirth.

Materials used:

refractory clay, engobe, enamel and oxidized iron
