The ceramic frieze designed for the interior of The Manner hotel in NYC originates from the artist’s research on ceramics and the study of sculpture in relation to architecture. The artwork, placed above the chimney, emerges as a high-relief in which the plastic gesture exalts the inherent characteristics of the material itself. Hence the choice to shape the clay just using hands to highlight the tactile aspect and the physical energy that determined it.
