IMITATE THE ONE WHO HAS CREATED EVERYTHING
10 lessons – Every Monday at 9:00 PM from May 5th to July 14th – Curated by Giuseppe Venturini
“Everything that is plastic, figurative, symbolic, evokes certain states of mind, and a consequent vibratory state that is transmitted in the immediate and distant environment.”
Sculpture is a wonderful way to awaken new forces in us and after having amplified them, perfected in the depths of our unconscious, they allows us to transform into other individuals.
When sculpting clay, the sculptor is in a certain way like the Creator of Genesis.
In this way it is possible to regenerate, to strengthen oneself, because the work of identification, of meditation on one’s masterpiece, makes one feel regenerated, especially when the object is inspired by a spiritual, mystical subject. ” (Tommaso Palamidessi)
“The hand, an ancient and wonderful tool, molding a humble material with the warmth of the soul, tries to imitate the One who created everything.
This is the art of “modeling”. (Giuseppe Venturini)
The course will offer the opportunity to learn the basics of sculpting by working on bas-reliefs created by the students, which will then be kiln-fired. The artworks produced during the course will remain the property of the students.
