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 patina bronze.
Exclusive and rare object from the sculpting artists Francioni Mastromarino who have been working for over 2 decades in their art studio in Pietrasanta, Italy.
A work with strong symbolic value
“I HOPE” is a contemporary sculpture that contains a universal message of hope, responsibility and continuity between generations.
The female figure, nude and unveiled, wears a mask that conceals her expressions, removing any reference to the individual to represent the essence of all women in a universal and timeless way. The woman is resting 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, distinctive element of the Matrilineal collection, symbol of the invisible bond that unites origin, memory and descent.
On the figure’s abdomen is inscribed #IHOPE, a direct and contemporary sign that invites awareness and regeneration.
Materials and technique – work entirely produced by lost-wax casting.
This sculpture is not made of plaster, resin or composite materials.
The work is entirely produced via lost-wax casting, following the Italian sculptural tradition.
The female figure is cast in bronze, subsequently black patinated.
The globe is cast in aluminum, a material chosen for its structural lightness and durability.
Both elements are therefore melted metals, worked and finished by hand in the artists’ studio in Pietrasanta, with no 3D printing or industrial processes.
Each piece presents slight surface differences due to the casting process, guaranteeing the artisanal authenticity of the work.
