"I had the necessity of protecting myself with ceramics. Actually, it is a metaphor. Some animal species have exoskeleton: an external continuous skeleton covering their body, protecting them. Instead, human beings are born without any external protection, absolutely helpless and defenseless. This piece reflects on our degree of vulnerability. It is an artificial human exoskeleton. A rigid piece that, being resolved in ceramics, is humanly fragile itself."
