AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Free Shipping across Europe
Sculpture obtained in double lost-wax casting, the world in aluminum and the woman in black patinated bronze.
Exclusive and rare object from the sculptor artists Francioni Mastromarino who have been working for over two decades in their art studio in Pietrasanta, Italy.
An artwork with strong symbolic value
“I HOPE” is a contemporary sculpture that embodies a universal message of hope, responsibility, and continuity between generations.
The female figure, nude and unclothed, wears a mask that conceals her expressions, removing any individual reference to represent the essence of all women in a universal and timeless way. The woman rests on our planet, the Earth, the only common good to preserve for future generations.
On the globe a black line is traced, the maternal line, a distinctive element of the Matrilineal collection, symbolizing the invisible bond that unites origin, memory, and descent.
On the abdomen of the figure is inscribed #IHOPE, a direct and contemporary mark inviting awareness and regeneration.
Materials and technique – work entirely produced by lost-wax casting.
This sculpture is not made in plaster, resin, or composite materials.
The work is wholly obtained through lost-wax casting, according to Italian sculptural tradition.
The female figure is cast in bronze, subsequently patinated black.
The globe is cast in aluminum, chosen for its structural lightness and durability.
Both elements are therefore metal castings, worked and hand-finished in the artists’ studio in Pietrasanta, with no 3D printing or industrial processes used.
Each piece shows slight surface differences due to the casting process, guaranteeing the artisanal authenticity of the artwork.
