About the Item

Neapolitan sculptor Luigi Mazzella expresses himself in bronze, wood, silver, ceramics, iron, and even lead. his latest, large and monumental works are made of lead, which is the element of the alchemist, which is transformed into gold at the end of the cognitive process, and of purification with the help of the philosopher's stone that changes vile metals into noble metal Lead therefore is intrinsically noble because it contains within itself the capacity for change, it is heavy but ductile, it glows with silvery, lunar and pure warm reflections. Mazzella is a child of Southern Baroque, which in metamorphosis found the balance between human and natural, light and shadows, life and death, ephemeral and eternal, corruptible and incorruptible.
