From the Terramara series dedicated to the deadly sins. Envy. Iron, fabric, needles and pins
"The seven deadly sins" ... are linked to the culture of people, to the religious conception that has shaped
beliefs and prejudices ... and in any case they are linked to earthly life, to its "pleasures" to its
"insatiability".
An iron structure that refers to an insect, tied to the earth with threadlike legs (symbol of fragility), and
with a cocoon-body which from time to time, from sin to sin, is filled, internally or externally, with
symbolic elements that refer to the sin of the current exhibition. The color of the cocoons is variable, flesh
pink for the throat, black for the envy that will be pierced by needles and pins.
