In his interpretation of the female body, Paolo Desario seeks the essence, the archetype. The study of form merges with the study of pose, always in balance. By shaping the raw material, the clay, the artist gives life to a body and a pose crystallized in time. Yet, the female body exudes freedom.

Paolo Desario’s artistic talent, versatile and multi-faceted, shines forcefully from his works, releasing a vital energy that is almost tangible. His inspiration starts from an inner quest that carries ancient and primordial echoes, as suggested by the sinuous female torsos and the winged figures. He manages to fuse reality and transcendence through ever-new insights, knowing how to craft an original synthesis between the individual preference for essential forms and the most attentive contemporary plastic research.

A sculptor and painter, Paolo Desario was born in Barletta, Puglia, and studied at the Academy of Fine Arts of Bari in the sculpture school of Amerigo Tot. He lives and works in Barletta, having taught Plastic Disciplines at the Liceo Artistico Statale "Sacro Cuore" in Cerignola and at the Liceo artistico of Corato. He boasts a career spanning almost 50 years, dedicating himself to sculpture and painting, and taking part in numerous national and international solo and group exhibitions.
