Technique: Resin and marble powder Dimensions: H13 x L15 x P13 cm Condition: new Certificate of authenticity - hand-signed Edition: limited edition 100ex A simple, recognizable figure is transformed into something different. The teddy bear, a symbol of affection and protection, keeps its shape but loses its function: it is no longer something to touch or to live with lightly. The surface completely changes the perception of the piece. What from a distance appears familiar, up close becomes more distant, almost inaccessible. A direct contrast is thus created between what we know and what we see. The work plays precisely on this tension: on one side it attracts, on the other it keeps at a distance. In this way, an image linked to childhood is reread in a contemporary key, becoming something more complex and less reassuring. INSURED SHIPPING! The serial number may not correspond to the one in the photo. Born in 1992 in Macerata, Marche, the Italian artist pursued a path that, between studies in Geometer and Architecture, led him to collaborate with a resin sculpture artisan. There arose the increasingly strong need to find himself and give free rein to his creativity. His works are sold worldwide, collaborating with galleries in Italy and Europe.

"It’s never easy to classify one’s own art; I try to convey what my eyes see, my way of looking at what surrounds me, and I rework it with a design that fits well with modern times: impactful and memorable."
