About The Artwork
That Tree has cost us the Garden of Eden; may be that one day the Cherubim placed to guard the way to the Tree of Life – as per Genesis, 3 - will let us pass, thus allowing men to become immortal: a quite boring perspective ! The Tree has been fashioned fixing to a wooden panel several tree branches to which the trunk has been added made of polystyrene covered with strips of tree bark; leaves and flowers of the Tree have been made using strips of plastered jute; the flowers show a hard-stone at the centre, symbolizing the fruits that gave the ancient Gods their immortality; around the trunk a female body has been fashioned using strips of plastered jute; from the bottom of the trunk, at belly level of the female body, a baby – made from a doll - sticks out from the trunk, still partly merged with it: life is beginning over again; finally the whole sculpture has been painted and bright varnished.

My name is Luciana Chiusole, but I have also an artist’s name, Bezec, that was my father’s nickname. I have always been seeing in Nature, particularly in the logs, roots and branches of cut off trees, peculiar “forms” – often originated from my reading and traveling experiences – that I try to bring about making up the roots with clay, paper mache and other, to get the shape I have “seen” and eventually painting and varnishing it. Among my recent works, the “Mannequins” series has evolved from this approach, originated from reading about the ancient mythologies when I started “dreaming” of some roots and branches, I had found somewhere, as the distinctive features of a specific “God” or “Goddess” I had learned of.
