CHRISTINE , earthenware SCULPTURE BY Roberto Tagliazucchi

"Christine" from 2005 is a terracotta sculpture that exudes a serene and thoughtful sensuality. With its soft and embracing forms, the female figure rests in a pose that invites contemplation of tranquility and the inherent beauty of the human form. The terracotta, an earthy and warm material, adds an extra layer of intimacy to the piece, with hues ranging from orange-red to deep black where the terracotta meets the burnt element. This work represents a delicate interplay between raw material and the elegance of form, celebrating art's ability to capture moments of silent introspection.
