Kintsugi Heads - Seletti

With Kintsugi Heads HIM, Marcantonio reinterprets the ancient art of kintsugi through a sculptural male face of great elegance. This China creation appears to have weathered the passage of time before being carefully pieced back together. The cracks are no longer flaws to be concealed but become the most precious elements of the work. True to the Japanese philosophy of kintsugi, this piece celebrates transformation, resilience, and the beauty born of adversity. With Kintsugi Heads SHE, Marcantonio continues his exploration of the contrasts between fragility and rebirth. This China sculpture reinterprets the ancient Japanese art of kintsugi through a feminine face of great tenderness. The gold cracks do not seek to conceal the material’s imperfections. On the contrary, they reveal them as marks of beauty and uniqueness. A deeply poetic vision that gives rise to an extraordinary decorative piece.
