About Meduse Nal Farshaxan ah

Meduse waa nal farshaxan ah oo laga dhiirigeliyay deegaanka badda. Qayb kastaa waxay isku daraa dheryo Raku ah oo dhoobo ah iyo dabaqallayl (tentacles) muraayad ah oo laga sameeyay muraayadda Murano ee la afuufo. Nalku wuxuu ku habboon yahay isticmaalka gudaha iyo dibaddaba, wuxuuna abuuraa saameyn iftiin iyo hoosley ah oo ku dhaca darbiyada u dhow. Iftiinka LED-ka ee midabada kala duwan waxaa lagu hagaajin karaa gacan-hage fog (remote control). Jirka dheryada waxaa lagu qaabeeyaa dhoobo adkaysi kuleyl leh, kadibna waa la qalajiyaa, la shido, la dahaadho dhalo (glaze), oo mar labaad lagu shido heerkulka 930 darajo Celsius, ka dibna waa laga soo saaraa foornada intii ay wali kulushahay. Naxdinta kuleylka ee dhalata waxay ka abuurtaa dusha sare qaab dildillaacsan oo leh iftiinbixin bir ah iyo mid rangeeya oo dhalaalaya.

Production Technology
After the modelling with refractory clay, I begin a deconstruction process of the traditional shape, a 20 day long drying process begins. I go on with the first cooking at 950 degrees celsius, the glazing process and the second cooking into a Raku oven at 930 degrees celsius. The object is removed still white-hot from the oven. Arrangement of the Led lighting system and finally the insertion of the Murano blown glass tentacles.
Design Challenge
Take the pieces out of the oven at 940 degrees celsius and quickly manage the thermal shock in three minutes.
The integration of the glass tentacles on the ceramic base.
Research
The goal is to create lamps that integrate Art and Design. The method is transversal by integrating two techniques ceramics with Murano glass; Through the Deconstruction of art, a process of liberation from the traditional historical form begins to give way to a new syncretic language. Two readings: Fusion of different techniques and cultures and Safeguarding the oceans, a tropicalization of the Mediterranean is occurring.The lamp has had a positive impact in Milan and in the VeniceGlassWeek 2020
Inspiration
The Marine Habitat, I conceive my works as reflections of a recreated nature, the connection between nature and culture is a constant in my work. I work across different disciplines.I began a path of alienation from the Traditional shape in order to give way to a new syncretic language by the deconstruction of the art.
The work communicates two levels of interpretation:
Fusion and integration of two cultures, Peru and Italy.
Safeguarding seas and oceans: a Tropicalization of the Mediterranean sea is occurring.
