Description

In this precious object, the ancient technique of bizantine mosaic is reconsidered in a contemporary key: the antique varnishes, still producted in a historic furnace in Venezia completely handmade, are flanked to spun Murano's murrine.

The miscellany of these materials, cut and built handling by the artist in a smart and unique design, allows to create wavy surfaces who permit the light refraction and the shine of the object with every light.

In this panel, a clear inspiration from Roy Lichtenstein's works, the varnishes have the vivid colours of the Pop Art and in every letter they're wrought in a different way.

Measures: cm. 55x32x3 (circa)

About the Artist...

The artistic personality of Barbara Liverani, of Ravenna, stands out for her strong versality.

Born as an expert artisan, she evolved toward different but parallel artistic environments, which likes to join in many situations.

She studied at excellent institutes of design where she developed knowings and furniture projects, interior decoration and design objects.

During the years, she worked on Artistic Recovery of furniture, created theatre costumes, specialized in fashion designer and nurtured the curiosity for the applied arts and techniques , such as mosaic, plating and wrought-iron, learned in the workshops of the best local artisans.

The love for Mosaic and the passion for fabrics brought her to explore new creative forms, such her interpretation of the great operas of the secession masters in a musive key.

C.R. Mackintosh, Pierre Chareau and in particular Klimt's masterpieces lit up with the “dressed” lamps in a refined interpretation of Klimt's clothings, exhibited and sold in Milan, Madrid, Copenaghen, at the F.I.M. (Valencia 2006), "Abitare il Tempo" (Verona 2006), "Euroluce" (Milan 2007), "Light + building" (Frankfurt 2008).

For the 'mosaic dressing' of her works, Barbara Liverani chose a techinque able to melt Ancient and Modernity.

With the usage of venetian vistreous pastes, Murano's golds and murrine according to the centuries-old school of bizantine mosaic, she creates objects of contemporary taste characterised by soft lines and the explosion of lights and colours.

In the nice scene of her new atelier-shop you can find mosaic objects, raku ceramic, wool accessories, fancy decorated dresses, lamps, jewels and material for mosaic.
