Gloria Di Modica

Majolica half bust is a symbol of stylized figure of a woman. It is a metamorphosis to achieve its end through the molding of clay, forged with water and fire, of spiritual and seductive colors. It tells of intimate things, describes the inner pain. the spasmodic search of the hope, the evolution in the search of the Light for excellence… A cut represented from a red line, describes the wound, and it cuts the figure in two parts.
The lower part of the sculpture is a rigid body, then it feels in agony, with a inner movements, slowly, but with strong intensity. A universal intense feeling, crosses it and it tears it, with an inexpressible pain.
The upper half of the sculpture represents the spirit, the feeling, the evolution towards the Light, the hope and the Love for excellence, it is the representation of a soul that is detached from the body, and it vibrates toward the Light.

Acrylic and indian ink.
The work represents the inner flight.
Intense weave of trajectories marked from the flight of the birds that are attracted by the Light for excellence.
