This artwork belongs to our From A Different Cloth series, in which we have combined antique ceramics with antique textiles and cast them in positive relief, revealing their shape while at the same time adding the textile’s softening effect to the various shapes.

The result reproduces the finest details of the textile into the hardness of the ceramics, creating a highly tactile object which challenges your expectations on how ceramics usually look and feel.

This composition comprises ceramic saucers in coloured slip cast stoneware and porcelain in different shapes and dimensions.

Each saucers presents the structure of a Damask textile fragment from a cloth belonging to Marcello’s grandmother.

By way of casting the damask into ceramic the memory of Marcello’s childhood is preserved for the future, while being transformed into a new object that can be admired by the viewer.

The panel comes with its own invisible hanging system.
