Tapestry fish

The artefact

A striking textile element realised using a handloom in collaboration with a group of expert weavers of the village of Aggius, and which is a fine reference to the local textile tradition, is inserted into this large ceramic fish, which stands out for its distinctive plastic effects. Also produced as a base for a lamp of remarkable aesthetic value, it is handcrafted and it bears the clearly recognisable trait of this ceramist.
