While men strive to leave some traces of their passage, women take it easy, knowing that life flows through them. In the history of art the synthesis of these two attitudes has produced the iconic subject of the Divina. Between classical realism and contemporary abstraction, Giorgione and Moore, I have tried to give form to my Divina, placing her up on an altar to celebrate new convivial rites. Se gli uomini si affannano a lasciare tracce del loro passaggio, le donne rimangono tranquille ben sapendo che la vita fluisce attraverso di loro. La sintesi di questi due atteggiamenti ha portato, nella storia dell'arte, al soggetto iconico della Divina. Tra il realismo dei classici e l'astrazione dei contemporanei, tra Giorgione e Moore, ho cercato di dare forma alla mia Divina innalzandola su un altare per celebrare nuovi riti di convivialitā.
