ALICE Sculpture

"My father, an art lover and collector, gave me this name thinking of Leonardo Da Vinci. Then driven by my father's interest in art and by this important name that weighed on me, I dedicated my life to sculpture. From the beginning I was attracted, also for my innate passion for horses, by Leonardo Da Vinci's studies on the anatomy of this wonderful animal and even more intrigued by his experiments for the realization in bronze of the greatest equestrian work that would be never been made. This project, which was ahead of its time, however, remained a dream that stimulated my imagination, as if I felt the desire to complete the horse that Leonardo had studied and designed for so long. Starting from these bases, my work then developed towards other themes: the female figure, motherhood, children's games, the athletic gesture of equilibrists and wrestlers, ... with the aim of fixing apparently normal and at the same time exceptional. My figures place themselves in positions that challenge natural centres of gravity and yet resolve themselves in admirable balance; bodies and objects couple suspended over an emptiness made of a substance which exists and is felt, but remains invisible: this is what characterizes all my works."
