The research investigates the limits of the material - plaster in our case - its boundaries within which it deforms, changes irreversibly and shows itself in another shape that goes beyond the foreseeable intervention of man. New fractures open up, new scenarios in which to read the multiple narratives of matter as witness of time.
The volumetric shapes emphasize the presence of the object in the space in dialogue with the lightness of the aluminum. Made in lost wax casting, each object takes on its own individuality and unrepeatability due the process adopted.
