Mosaic is a hand-made product, requiring ability, patience, hundreds and hundreds of hammer blows to complete a complex design, even on small surfaces.
The mosaic structure takes shape through the realisation of small portions: the laying step is very important, it’s necessary to insert each “tessera (the individual fragment of marble, or other material) in the cement binder for at least two thirds of its thickness.
Even if my single product can appear similar one to each other (since I can decide to repeat the same design / sketch / project), my mosaics are always and definitely unique in terms of manpower, material selection and “andamento” (the flow and direction of the tesserae).
Il mosaico é un’ opera manuale, richiede abilitá, pazienza, centinaia di colpi di martellina per creare un design complesso, anche quando è di piccole dimensioni.
La realizzazione di un mosaico avviene per piccole porzioni perché è necessario inserire ogni singola tessera nella malta cementizia per almeno due terzi del suo spessore. Anche quando un mosaico può apparire simile ad un altro ( se decido di ripetere lo stesso disegno o progetto) ogni opera è sempre unica, per manodopera, selezione dei materiali ed andamento (flusso e direzione delle tessere).
