Ceramic Sculpture Naomi 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. The work “Naomi” is a visual representation of lust, one of the most intensely desired sins. She is undeniably a woman of extraordinary beauty accentuated by refined features highlighted with makeup. Her seductive eyes have long cobalt-blue lashes in perfect harmony with the crown and necklace she wears. The precious gold leaf earrings, bearing the DG logo, illuminate her face. The spotted silk turban, draped in delicate folds reminiscent of high fashion garments, is enriched with a macramé lace made of lamé gold thread, giving her an added elegance. Naomi is aware of her beauty and her irresistibility, and the power they bestow upon her. With a sensual kiss from her full, red lacquered lips, she tantalizes the mesmerized onlooker. Her intense and seductive expression perfectly represents the concept of lust, an insatiable desire for sensory pleasure. The artist uses Naomi, a striking and captivating work, to explore lust in a contemporary context, challenging viewers to reflect on lust in today’s society, where beauty and seduction are constantly exalted and coveted.
