Vaso Metafisico 4, glazed ceramic, 37 x 15 cm, 2020
“The metaphysical vases evoke a type of art made of wonderful fantasies, of elements juxtaposed in a seemingly irrational manner.With these, the artist wants to narrate”what lies beyond reality’s physical appearance”.
Each character interacts with the vase like a castaway on a desert island.”
The person embodying a certain way of feeling “-the artist explains-find himself in a limbo, in purgatory almost, waiting for a change, which might never arrive”.
In these works, like in others from his ouvre, a consideration on the concept of selfportrait is present.
Here,it embodies an artist’s certainties, illusions and hopes.
The artist elaborates elements and situations of the everyday through the filter of his own experiences, which, if observed from a different perspective, takes on a new- and at times unexpected- meaning.
