AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

"La Concipiente" is a wall sculpture by Francioni Mastromarino.
Throughout their careers, Francioni Mastromarino have participated in prestigious international exhibitions, including:

Movements of the Soul in Pontedera
Looking for Monnalisa, where they presented a monumental sculpture.
The largest portrait of Leonardo da Vinci in the world – over 5 meters tall and approximately 4 meters in diameter – was acquired today in Pavia and officially recognized as a city monument.

This work is a secular altar, designed to be easily displayed thanks to a hook on the back and durable enough for outdoor use, thanks to sustainable and long-lasting materials.
The work embodies the Creator Woman, capable of generating not only in the body but also in spirit and thought. In her, intuition, the ability to embrace and transform, emotional intelligence, and a deep understanding of the world are reflected.
Her 'nest,' which inspires the hairstyle in the sculpture, is a physical and symbolic place where ideas, emotions, and relationships intertwine, becoming new beginnings. The name 'Concipiente,' from Latin con-capere, means 'to take upon oneself' and 'to understand': a double meaning that guides the inspiration of the work, which reflects on the female power to absorb, feel, and create connections between interiority and the external world.
Four-handed work by Eleonora Francioni and Antonio Mastromarino, the piece originates from an artistic and human collaboration that has lasted over twenty years, where artistic research is conceived in synergy.
Traditional techniques blend with a contemporary vision of form and symbol. The sculpture is made of acrylic resin mixed with rice husks (a byproduct of rice processing, repurposed to add value and durability), mounted on an aluminum sheet. The choice of materials embodies the artists' pursuit of tangible sustainability.
