The work features a flat, circular surface, enriched with geometric bas-reliefs and symbols typical of the artist's style, in which abstract and symbolic forms intertwine in a visually powerful radial composition.
The masterfully crafted transparent glass alternates smooth and sandblasted surfaces, creating a striking interplay of light and shadow.
The artist's engraved signature is clearly visible along the edge. It was produced by Edizioni Ars D, Milan, a leading publisher/engraver of artist's multiples, active between the 1960s and 1980s. They transformed artists' ideas and sketches into art objects that could be produced in limited editions, overseeing production, numbering, and packaging. Pomodoro collaborated with them to bring his sculpture into everyday life: the plates were born from original sketches, signed by the artist and crafted in "superiore sonoro" glass, using techniques such as engraving and sandblasting.
This piece combines the material purity of glass with the complexity of Pomodoro's sculptural touch, resulting not only in a valuable furnishing element but also in a tangible testament to his unmistakable style.
