'Pasta Madre: Fossil Head'

Pasta Madre is a project consisting of a series of sculptures and photographs of the artist’s head in bread left to crumble in different ways. The decomposition results of each head are recorded and preserved with different materials and techniques that transform the biological process of decomposition into an artistic one. The trace of the head, the relation with time, the metamorphosis of the material, of the form and of the image creates an “obeying” fossil to the law of the artist in a process of crystallization half way between improvisation and scientific method.
