In his interpretation of the female body, Paolo Desario seeks the essence, the archetype. The study of form combines with the study of the pose, always in balance. 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.

The artistic and polyhedral talent of Paolo Desario shines strongly through his works, releasing a vitality that is almost tangible. His inspiration starts from an inner search that has ancient and primordial echoes, as suggested by the sinuous female torsos and the winged figures. He manages to reconcile reality and transcendence through ever-new insights, knowing how to operate an original synthesis between the individual predilection for the essentiality of forms and the more attentive contemporary plastic research.

Sculptor and painter, Paolo Desario was born in Barletta, Apulia, and studied at the Academy of Fine Arts of Bari in the sculpture school of Amerigo Tot. He lives and works in Barletta, has taught Plastic Disciplines at the State Art High School "Sacro Cuore" of Cerignola and at the Art High School of Corato. He boasts an artistic career started almost 50 years ago, dedicating himself to sculpture and painting, participating in numerous national and international solo and group exhibitions.
