Living with Lightness

Living with Lightness

Life should be taken lightly. This doesn't mean being superficial but gliding above things without burdens in the heart." (Italo Calvino)

It's a perspective I really like, and I hope to make it mine over time!

The sculpture is rather small and light, in a carefree and almost suspended position!

The sculpture was modeled with a pinkish-toned clay without the application of ceramic enamels.

La pelle della ragazza è lasciata in argilla naturale, mentre le parti colorate del vestito sono state decorate con argilla bianca, gialla, nera e rosata.

The face is as small as a hazelnut and modelled by hand. The curls are applied one at a time and are made of delicate strips of clay rolled up on themselves.

The sculpture is hollow.

The sculpture underwent one firing at 960°.
