Echea Aeolica (2015)
sound sculpture
varnished fiberglass and stell
dim. 142x180x131cm

This work is a big resonating amphora designed to sound the wind that blows from the shore in Siracusa, Sicily. The shape of the sculpture derives from ancient “echea” amphoras as to create a connection to the ancient history of the land as if it leads an echo from afar. The clean modernist shape gives solemnity and soft coziness together to the work inviting the audience to put their ear close to the sculpture to listen to the resonance of the wind and the sounds of the surrounding ambience.
