Ceramic Sculpture Eva Head by Vanessa Semaino

About the Item

The “Surolù” art works - this is artistic identity chosen by Vanessa Semaino - arise from the artist 's need to represent women’s condition today, particularly in their emotional states that confer their unique identities. These precious ceramic sculptures, entirely handcrafted and decorated, represent female Moor’s heads. They were conceived as an expression of an introspective journey that relates Vanessa’s Sicilian origins and to her professional experience in the fashion stylistic field. The artist introduces, for the first time, the repeated use of sociological themes of current relevance through a visually immediate language, represented in her art works with a contemporary pop aesthetic. In contemporary art, the interpretation of the seven deadly sins offers artists an opportunity to explore the complex nuances of humanity. Eva is an artwork representing lust in the Moor’s series of heads titled “The Seven Deadly Sins”. Eva possesses a magnetic presence that captivates the viewer, enchanting them with her alluring and seductive expression. Every detail of her appearance is carefully crafted to enhance her irresistible charm. Her body is draped in a cloak of flowers, creating a symphony of colors and shapes that accentuate her harmonious figure. The choice of these flowers symbolizes an interpretation of lust as a primal force, in which desire and material appetite are also as an insatiable curiosity and a search for beauty and passion. The same flowers frame her face, adorning the turban with a combination of dots and animal prints, giving it a modern touch. Eva’s contemporaneity is also evident through the presence of two tattoos, one highlighting her love for her Adam and the other, marked with a hashtag, designating her as the “first influencer”. The presence of the tempting serpent symbolizes Eva’s desire for rebellion, her pursuit of pleasure and gratification beyond accepted boundaries. Limited ed. of 7 pieces
