    The artefact

    This iron sculpture with its rounded forms reinterprets the shape of the old traditional hoes, a memory linked to the personal family history, in a suggestive conceptual shift that, through the red satin ribbons, evokes the bodice of the traditional costume for women. It is part of the Origini collection with which the author investigates themes of Sardinian culture and tradition.
