© Bruno Romanelli
Romanelli's work centres around the figure and his recent pieces are concerned with his perception of memory. His glass forms are cast from life and represent a moment in time, like a photograph, but captured in glass leaving a memory or impression behind. This work is cast from the artist's own face using the technique of lost-wax casting.
