Materials: ceramic. Essence of form an exclusive mediterranean collection created for gallerie philia for this exclusive collection, created specifically for galleries philia, i sought to distill the essence of mediterranean life—its colors, its textures, and its forms—into a series of vessels that evoke a sense of place and heritage. The vibrant hues of cobalt blue, ocean blue, ochre yellow, and meadow green are inspired by the sea, the sky, the sun, and the earth, elements that are central to the mediterranean landscape. This collection is more than just a series of objects; it is a tribute to my heritage and an invitation to experience the beauty of the mediterranean in a new, tangible way. The “essence of form” collection was born from a deep-rooted connection to mediterranean traditions and a lifelong dedication to the art of ceramics. As an artist born in 1977, with ceramics running through my veins since childhood, i, onofrio acone, have always felt a strong bond with the craft. Living on the amalfi coast—a central paradise of the mediterranean, where ceramics are not only an art form but also a tradition and a cultural heritage— has deeply influenced my work and vision. Every vase in this collection is crafted entirely by hand, reflecting my commitment to traditional craftsmanship. This process ensures that each piece is not unique, but also carries with it the human touch—the imperfections and variations that give it character and soul. Essence of form is a celebration of simplicity and elegance, where modern design meets the timeless values of mediterranean artistry. The essence of the “essence of form” collection lies in the meticulous handcrafting of each vase, where every brushstroke tells a story. The pigments, applied directly onto the white engobe background, are rendered in bold yet organic gestures, evoking the vibrant spirit of the mediterranean. Each color—whether the cobalt blue, ocean blue, ochre yellow, or meadow green—has been carefully chosen to capture the natural beauty of the sea, sky, earth, and foliage. The white engobe base, created with wide, sweeping strokes, provides a textured canvas that highlights the contrast and fluidity of the vibrant hues. Every vase is a unique, hand-painted work of art, embodying the artisanal tradition of mediterranean ceramics and the personal touch that defines onofrio acone’s creations. See less
