Of all materials, the earth is the one that man has perhaps been able to use most creatively, combining a purely practical purpose with an apparently superfluous decorative aspect, which satisfies the pleasure of existing in an environment that repays the innate sense of beauty that is inherent in human beings.
And therefore not at all superfluous.

Foresta Onirica is a dynamic installation that can be modified at will, giving the possibility to be reinvented according to one's own creativity.

The elements, made of handmade terracotta, are modular and can also be completed with additional decorative elements.

Evocative of the manual skill that man has acquired in the course of his evolution, they contrast with, but are also complemented by, the mechanical joining elements, which are therefore produced by machines, and which not only express a contrast in terms (the handmade product in contrast to the industrial one) but also reveal the evolutionary aspect of mastery in the use of the materials themselves.

Through the use of engobe decorations inspired by landscapes and natural forms, the intention is to symbolise our world in which, inserted sporadically in a random manner, a different, unassimilable, obscure element invites us to reflect. Symbol of an end or a beginning.
