Description by the artist
U masculu ca frutta sicilian for “the man with the fruit”. The decoration technique is very ancient, and the historical towns where it was born are Caltagirone, Sciacca and Santo Stefano di Camastra. The hand-decorated objects have the classic form, but I decided faithfully not to copy the historical decorations, but I chose a personal line and decoration. When I decorate I am inspired to enhance the beauty of the biscuit itself by getting it through aging and decorating only the face the final effect that you get and I think it is harmonious and elegant . The bisque is first glazed with ivory glaze, then decorated, then baked at 950 c° and finally aged with a personal technique that characterizes most of my work.
