About East and West Sculptura Ceramica

Èst e Oèst es una seria d'objèctes artesanals de ceramica en forma de formigas. Cada sculptura de formiga mesura 160 millimètres de longor, 120 millimètres de prigondor e 300 millimètres d'nautor. La forma es realizada per virament al motle de sculptura e cuèita a nauta temperatura de 1300 gras. Papièr blau e blanc recuperat, collectat dins d'ateliers de Jingdezhen, es combinat amb un electroplacatge modèrn, ajustant la decoracion orientala a l'estil occidental. Coma lo papièr recuperat difèra per cada pèça, cada formiga es unica. La seria exprimís l'idèa del recicladge e de la proteccion de l'environament.
