THE STRATIFICATION OF OUR EXISTENCE

Styl’editions met Ferrucio Maierna, a sculptor born in Amsterdam in 1969. He lived in Brussels for the period of his personal training and then moved to Italy, more precisely to Rome where he currently lives and works.

Conceptually, the artist is close to the creativity of recycling and recovery; the selected material is worked entirely by hand through various processes, more or less rudimentary and sophisticated: compression, lamination, extension…

These are the key words that circumscribe the work of sculptor Ferruccio Maierna who gives new life to discarded material. The styl’editions surfaces imprint matter on matter, metal and paper coexist in a synergy of sublime chiaroscuro.

Who is Ferruccio Maierna?

“I am a sculptor who mainly works with metal. The material used is recycled, such as oil drums or jars that are destined to be thrown away. A material that allows me to express myself at my best, which I approached by chance and with which I have established a symbiotic relationship”
