Testa 14 is a large-format work from the Testas series, a sculptural project dedicated to the exploration of the human head as a universal and timeless form. Crafted in refractory stoneware fired in reduction, this piece incorporates embedded iron barbed wire, intensifying both its material strength and its conceptual resonance. with dimensions of 75 x 37 x 37 cm and a weight of 16 kg, the sculpture carries a commanding presence, heightened by the tactile energy of clay surfaces and the stark tension of rusted wire. The Testas series approaches the head with directness and spontaneity, producing singular, unique works that—when viewed collectively—reveal striking similarities. This paradox invites reflection on the dual tension between individuality and collectivity, a theme that underpins the entire series. Each piece stands as a singular entity, yet together they speak of shared identity, the inseparability of the one and the many. In Testa 14, the combination of clay and barbed wire underscores a visceral dialogue between fragility and constraint, organic presence and industrial harshness. The barbed wire functions both as structural element and as metaphor, amplifying the emotional impact of the sculpture. It is a compelling example of contemporary sculpture that merges material experimentation with conceptual depth. This piece has an attribution mark,
