Scarabia

Alberto Viola, Scarabia

Alberto Viola’s sculptural bodies evoke organic and primeval forms such as stones. The artist has shaped these formless terracotta bodies using infinitesimal bits of pigmented earth diluted in water. This mush - dirty water more than anything else - is combined with the natural organic decomposition of weeds growing on artificial stones in a wild and abandoned Zen Garden atmosphere.
