The work is inspired by Carmenta, one of the Camene, archaic divinity of the springs. It was created after a reflection on both historical-cultural and purely formal and aesthetic aspects. Aspects that concerned the place and in particular the typical forms of the Grottagliese ceramic identity. The work, therefore, in its linearity is a synthesis of these elements, with the aim of harmoniously bringing together tradition and contemporaneity. As if to present itself as a representative and reference object of the aforementioned identity.
