PERDAS FITTAS SCULPTURES Studiopepe for Pretziada

I & II: 30 x 30 x H35 cm Limited edition of 14

 

Inspired by the depth and silence of the Sardinian countryside, Studiopepe has created Perdas Fittas, a collection of 14 limited edition sculptures, that celebrates the sacrality of Sardinian stone and the healing power of water. These miniature mountains, sculpted by hand from compact basalt found in the plateau of Paulilatino, recreate the majestic and mysterious nature of the island. On each sculpture perch small bronze vessels for our modern offerings of fire or scented waters and oils.

Each of the bronze receptacles was cast by the ancient practice of sand-casting, then refinished and hand polished by Karmine Piras in his workshop. Piras has studied experimental archeology for decades in collaboration with local museums and the region of Sardinia, Italy. He has mastered various techniques of bronze casting which the native Nuragic peoples used millennia ago to make their acclaimed Bronzetti sculptures.
