Description
The Piccola Arca, conceived by Maestro Giuseppe Rivadossi, is an archetypal image of great beauty, crafted from lindenwood. This exquisite object embodies one of the Maestro's most cherished themes, reflecting his profound thought and artistic vision. Its form and design are rooted in deep symbolism, echoing a timeless narrative.Inspired by the biblical Ark, a vessel built by Noah to save and preserve life, the Piccola Arca encapsulates Rivadossi's fascination with themes of salvation and preservation. The Ark represents a beacon of hope, a sanctuary for all living beings amidst chaos, resonating deeply with the Maestro's artistic ethos.Rivadossi's "Arches" within the Piccola Arca are crafted with welcoming shapes, symbolizing guardians of life. They cradle and protect, evoking images of ancestral seeds ready to burst forth with vitality. These shapes could also be seen as spaceships, designed to transport humanity to safer realms, embodying a blend of ancient symbolism and futuristic imagination.
