Nature is the cradle of the ACQUAlab project and is one of the cornerstones of the life I have chosen. I live in an uncontaminated landscape area and since 2020 my days have been marked by hands kneading clay, woods, and wild foraging.

I decided to live surrounded by nature in my daily life and I try to apply this choice in as many areas as possible, such as in critical and sustainable consumption.

All the pieces I create are unrepeatable; I don't work with molds and each object is unique. The rhythm of the seasons cyclically dictates all my productions. My works tell the story of seasonal wild blooms.

In botanical ceramics, we can recognize spring or autumn, summer, and winter.

Materials used: ceramic.

Technique: all pieces are unique, made from ceramic mixtures that I roll out and work by hand. I carefully select the botanicals that I then impress onto the clay. After controlled drying, the piece is fired a first time at 1180 degrees. Subsequently, I decorate the entire piece with a brush, glaze it, and at this point, the second firing can be carried out.

Dimensions: 15x15 cm

All pieces are unique, constantly restocked. The images are indicative; you can choose the botanical.
