Rome, clay working in the service of emotions in an exhibition at the Museum of the Walls

In Rome, the Museum of the Walls will host the exhibition Clay Narratives. Archetypes in Fairy Tales and Myths from March 14 to May 10.

This exhibition showcases ceramic art and how clay is worked in all possible forms, with a focus on the experiments and contaminations of the contemporary artistic avant-garde. United by their love for such a versatile medium of expression, sixteen female artists ceramists from very different backgrounds have come together in this exhibition project to narrate their emotions, interwoven with childhood memories, and to represent the female archetypes, but not only, encountered in fairy tales, myths, and epic tales.

Through an ensemble of more than 70 works of different sizes (some almost miniatures, others 2 meters high) they offer insights of reflection and at the same time of playful expressive imagination, ranging from Basile ’s quotations to those of Calvino, according to whom the fairy tale is “a general explanation of life; the catalog of destinies that can be given to a man and a woman, especially for the part of life that is the making of a destiny: youth, which then sees its confirmation in maturity and old age.”

The artists are Francesca Bedetti, Fernanda Andrea Cabello, Cinzia Catena, Alessandra Di Marco, Emanuela Fabozzi, Anna Maria Grippo, Robbie Mazzaro, Maria Grazia Morsella, Speranza Neri, Paola Ramondini, Francesca Romana Sansoni, Alessandra Spina, Manuela Troilo, Raffaella Troise, Maria Valerio, and Tatiana Viduatto.
