Sculpture is at its most essential as a physical, tactile medium, and needs to be touched to be fully experienced. Creating a handmade resin sculpture is an intricate process that requires the mastery of various skills and techniques. This dancing sculpture, in gun metal patina finish resin, stands on its wooden base, featuring intricate details, height, singular twists, interstices, and curves, culminating in an energetic union that transforms the static and individual into a dynamic couple. As you let your hands wander, with closed eyes, you can sense fluidity in their movements, brought to life by soft, rounded lines. Every gesture and sweep emits a unique emotion, as if the two dancers were sharing a whispered conversation, inviting the viewer to witness their intimate exchange. By taking this sculpture home...

Capistrano Gemma Taccogna, a Mexican artist of Italian descent, left a distinctive mark in folk art with her mastery of papier-mâché for the small one, and of ceramic for the big one, which she transformed into an illusion of porcelain. Her style is immediately recognizable: faces with clean features, large, stylized eyes outlined in black, and a playful approach to form. These two vases, attributed to Taccogna, evoke Russian dolls known as Matryoshkas, due to the way the faces are painted, associated with the archetype of the mother of a large family, a symbol of motherhood and fertility. The larger one, a mix of ceramics and papier-mâché, and the smaller one, entirely made of papier-mâché, share this common aesthetic, reinforced by generous, solid shapes. Their gazes seem to observe without truly concentrating, as if absorbed in a distant thought. This lack of focus gives them a presence that is both peaceful and enigmatic, suspended between wakefulness and dream. The relief necklaces, applied with a deliberately naïve touch, add a sculptural dimension to the whole. The matte, textured material contrasts with the porcelain-like visual effect. One of the vases is signed "Bunny Price" and dated 1964, while the other remains anonymous. However, their attribution is unquestionable. Presented together, these vases belong to the movement of the Mexican craft...
