Francioni Mastromarino (1978) - La Viandante - bianca...

Direct sale from the author with free shipping! "The Wayfarer" is a life-size sculpture representing a woman on a journey, not toward a specific destination but within a personal path made of change, choice, and necessity. On the lips appears the phrase “We should all be feminists,” which introduces an explicit message related to gender equality. The figure includes symbolic elements to discover; the work is produced in a very limited series of only a few pieces and is made with low-impact materials such as geomalt and rice husk. It was created in the artists’ studio in Pietrasanta, where Francioni and Mastromarino have been working together for years, and is sold directly from the atelier with certification and shipping organized with protective packaging and documentation for export when necessary. Bronze pupils and a stainless steel aluminum hook ensure its durability; The Wayfarer is a symbolic sculpture and an altar to the strength and complexity of being a woman today. The sculpture is the result of the synergy of two artists, Francioni and Mastromarino, a pair of artists and lovers who have worked together for about 20 years in their Pietrasanta studio in Tuscany. The chosen materials minimize the pollutant percentage, as does choosing cardboard shavings as filler for the shipment. The sculpture is carefully packaged in a very sturdy box and shipped with express courier. All our collectors are very satisfied with the sturdiness of our packaging which avoids surprises and breakages. With our sculptures we are present in private collections in the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Luxembourg, Spain, France, Portugal, Denmark, Austria, the USA, Switzerland, Romania, the United Kingdom, Poland, Italy and many other countries. For shipments outside the European Union, the sculpture will be accompanied by a certificate of free export for contemporary artworks, which will be stamped and authenticated by the Export Office of the Florence Fine Arts Supervisory Office, part of the Ministry of Culture. Regarding shipments to Germany, we are registered with the German LUCID registry to ensure proper disposal of packaging. We are committed to complying with environmental regulations and contributing to reducing environmental impact. Whether the sculpture is shipped outside the European Union or to Germany, we ensure all necessary documents are provided and that the required procedures are followed to guarantee a safe and legal delivery. The sculpture is carefully packaged in a very sturdy recyclable cardboard box, protected by paper and wood shavings and paper to minimize the polluting materials of the packing. Our collectors are very satisfied with the robustness of our packaging. Free pickup at the authors’ studio in Pietrasanta (Lucca) – Tuscany, Italy
