The sculptures

1978-1993

I started sculpting when i was very young.  It’s a technique that has always been very natural to me.  I found a piece of wood that inspired me and I carved it.

Going back to compare arts to languages, I would say that sculpting is my mother tongue, and painting represents a foreign language that I’ve been studying for a long time.

Wood is the material that I prefer.  I tried to do some terracotta works, and I believe it’s a very interesting technique I should deepen.  I also would like to try to work with marble.

There are many more sculptures than shown in this page, but since I did them when I was really young, I lost all the contacts with them.
