In the creation of sculptures that explore the profound themes of virtues, vices, and the human soul, the choice of material plays an essential role. Each piece is carefully crafted using a range of exceptional materials that bring depth and emotion to the artwork.
White Carrara marble, renowned for its purity and timeless beauty, is often chosen for its ability to reflect the delicate balance of human virtues—strength, elegance, and grace. Its smooth, luminous surface captures light in a way that emphasizes the purity of form, making it perfect for portraying ideals of goodness and nobility.
Verona marble, with its rich hues, offers a striking contrast, embodying the complexity and darker aspects of human nature, such as temptation and inner struggle. This material allows for bold, dynamic expressions, inviting viewers to confront the imperfections and vices that reside within us all.
Terracotta, on the other hand, brings warmth and texture to these explorations of the human condition. Its raw, organic quality evokes a sense of earthiness and vulnerability, grounding the sculptures in the tangible reality of our existence. Through terracotta, the fragility and resilience of the human spirit come to life, bridging the gap between the divine and the mortal.
Each material serves as a vessel to explore the intricate dance between light and shadow, between virtue and vice, and to reflect the eternal complexity of the human soul.
