Description:
During the 1980's, Italian sculptor Serena Tallarigo produced a series of work called "On the Edge of Stone/At the Edge of Sculpture"; "Narcissist" is one of that group. These sculptures are interesting for their fine materials as well as their visual content. The profirico marble for this piece was quarried in northern Italy--near Trieste--at an unusual site where the stone is cut horizontally. Tallarigo sculpts using a pneumatic hammer as her primary carving tool; makes no preparatory drawings for her work, but rather plans the works completely in her mind prior to picking up her tools.
Serena Tallarigo discusses the process of creating her sculpture in this photo-interview.
