Tuttifrutti

by Andrea Maestri

“Tuttifrutti” is a collection of bizarre characters and animals, a surprising mix of dreamlike creatures that define an extended family full of joy and fun.
Each element has its own strong personality and blurs the line between design and art.
The first part consists of tall vases inspired by the impressive aesthetics of tribal cultures, the fascination for primitive language is expressed through the use of bright colors combined with simple geometric figures; each character represents an archetypal human presence, like a mask acting on the domestic stage.
The second group is formed by some multipurpose containers transformed into strange creatures with iconic features; starting from the memory of an old fashioned toy, they become odd sculptures characterized by oversized anatomical details that emphasize proportions and shapes of the human body.
Lastly, a flock of three tropical birds with large beaks and gradient colors similar to candies or lollipops; once again a childhood remembrance of soft and reassuring shapes, silent and curious presences that observe the viewer and make the home environment more unusual.
The collection is a limited edition, it’s realized in handmade ceramic by the most exquisite italian manufacturers and decorators, further enriched with details in precious metals.
