Michael Fantozzi - Little Posidonia #2

Michael Fantozzi is an international artist and the original creator of the famous sarcastic clay fish that are captivating collectors and enthusiasts around the world.

From this iconic series come the works “Little Posidonia”: unique creations, entirely handmade by the artist, one by one, without the use of molds, reproductions or industrial copies. Each fish is personally modeled by Michael Fantozzi in clay, making every piece absolutely unrepeatable. There is no other identical work in the world.

Buying a Michael Fantozzi creation means owning something authentic, rare and hard to find: not a print, not a replica, but an original work shaped by the artist’s hands with hours of artisanal work and obsessively careful attention to detail.

For his works, Michael Fantozzi seeks carefully selected materials from different parts of the world: from high-quality iridescent acrylics to the luminous zirconia that adorns every detail, up to the decorative elements chosen with care to give character and uniqueness to each piece. Each material is chosen not only for its beauty but also for its ability to convey emotion, light and personality to the work.

Michael Fantozzi’s works are today sold and collected internationally. Large installations and large-format works have been exhibited at the Milan, Rome, and Florence Biennales, and at numerous exhibitions and artistic events throughout Europe.
The artist has also been awarded at Montecitorio as Italian Excellence Abroad, a recognition that testifies to the international and cultural impact of his work. Michael Fantozzi has also been selected and published in Mondadori’s historic magazine “ARTE” among the 100 most interesting Italian contemporary artists on the current scene, an important editorial recognition that confirms the artistic and collecting value of his works.
Presence in ARTE magazine, a reference point for collectors, gallery owners and enthusiasts in the sector, has further solidified the artist’s notoriety in the Italian and European contemporary scene, highlighting the originality of his artistic language and the expressive power of his creations.

Behind every work lies a powerful and timely message: the denunciation of pollution, particularly marine pollution, told through an ironic, provocative visual language rich in sarcasm. Michael Fantozzi’s fish are decorated with symbolic elements such as cigarettes, chewing gum, bottles, cans and musical instruments, turning them into silent spokespersons for marine animals and the consequences of human impact on the planet.

These works are not mere decorative objects: they are conversations to hang on the walls. An elegant and original way to talk about important topics like the pollution that afflicts humanity, without sacrificing that touch of irony that makes each creation even more intense and memorable.

Each piece is titled, numbered and hand-signed by the artist and is accompanied by its corresponding certificate of authenticity.

The work is delivered inside a refined, closed box frame, designed to protect the piece from dust, shocks and external elements, while also highlighting it as a true collectable artwork. The frame is provided ready to hang, immediately turning the work into an exclusive element for your home or space.

Shipping is performed with professional and protective packaging, designed to guarantee maximum safety during transport.
