ABOUT THE ARTWORK

The artwork is a mosaic made of shaped glazed terracotta tiles on a wooden support. The mosaic is supported by a wooden panel. The colors are very bright and intense. The mosaic belongs to the “cities series”, freely inspired by ancient images of medieval Tuscan villages and cities. My research focuses on the study of space and the composition of forms: what appears is a tangle of lines and surfaces that follow each other harmoniously in a series of houses, churches, walls, streets. The village is represented enclosed in a circle of walls which follows a shape round and harmonious. The landscapes of the series are always typically Tuscan in tone, and the one here shown represents an ancient image of Pisa, the city where I live.

The mosaic is then reassembled on a wooden support. The artist's production also includes tiles and pendants also in ceramics. The artworks of Nicoletta De Francesco are permanently exposed in her Atelier: Studio d’arte Barbuti – De Francesco, Via dei Mille 22 Pisa, Italy. The site of the studio is: .
