Gaudio

Resin is Barbara Salvucci’s favourite material to work with. In many of her works it is transparent and contains traces of fabric, flowers and natural elements, as if they were fossils. In this work, which is constructed like a large holy-water stoup, the resin is white. Similar works, including those displayed at the Temple Gallery in Rome in 2013, have shapes which look like a shroud, containing honey. In this work, the source of joy is the Fabbri fruit. The decoration is a fragment of the famous jar given by Gennaro Fabbri to his wife Rachele.
