June 2024 will see the unveiling of a series of new statues and paintings at the much awaited NAG Art Gallery Show in Pietrasanta in Tuscany. Months in the making, I've organized for your perusal the photos and videos of the sculptures and the process.

A key step in bronze art creation is to pull a wax version from the mold. The wax is then adjusted for an accurate match to the original sculpture, which in this case was created in clay.

A Multifaceted Couple

Year-end 2022 was total immersion — finishing a pair of sculptures after several years of awaiting transport to Europe. When asked what led to the inspiration for this up-beat duo, Patrizia recalled "I wanted to create multicultural personalities that reflect the world we live in today. Part of the New World Collection, HE and SHE are a melding of 21st century pop-art, reggae, hip-hop and world music genres. Of emerging fashion among celebs and the brilliant vibe found on the global stage.”

SHE / 2012- 2022

Patrizia's choice for this multifaceted vision? Mosaics, thousands of painstaking and lovingly placed tessera, a mixtures of glass 24 karat gold and sterling silver, millefiori, beads and found objects. The dual personality statues feature a fun and vivacious side with a classically, formal flip side.

HE / 2013-2023
