PIETRAGREZZA
Biography:
Brand created by Matteo Ansani, multifaceted Italian "creator", passionate about archeology, myths and natural sciences.
For the realization of his pieces he delights both in reworking ancient techniques of working with materials, and in experimenting with new ones.
His creations deal with forms and themes with pseudonatural and metaphysical characteristics, an occult side of perceived reality in which the act of creation, that moment before completion, represents the apex of the confrontation between human being and work of art.
Having recently entered the goldsmith and sculptural art, he gets involved by accepting the challenge of this world dominated by giants.
Biography: Pseudonatural Lands
This line is the result of some experiments on prototypes for the lost wax casting technique.
The line opens a view on a setting with a psychedonatural trait, a small glimpse of a remote world and foreign to our eyes. The pieces want to recall and stimulate one of our greatest forms of creation, the imagination, which fluctuates often relegated to the dream state without a form of manifestation.
Materials: Gold plated brass/bronze alloy and freshwater pearls.
