This was my attempt to create a sculpture with a 'double' message. From one point of view it is a female figure, bending backwards as if to open herself, to welcome the spectator. From another point of view it is the welcoming spot of every woman as well as the origin of all men as we know it. That is why I call this piece the Fountain of Fertility.

The marble pebble from which I made this piece I picked up myself in a small river in the mountains near Azzano, Tuscany. This is the same region where the famous carrara marble comes from.
The sculpture is mounted on a black granite soccle.

Graphic designer and advertising and signing professional. I usually work with limestone, marble and bronze although I also divert myself with drawing and painting, linoprinting and ceramics. For my inspiration I look at all the beauty that surrounds me, generally female beauty and translate that into my sculptures. What would men be without women and female beauty? My challenge is to visualize or at least acknowledge the relevancy of that question. I sign my sculptures with RGN59 or REIGN59, reign is an anagram of the first letters of my full name.
