Metal-morphosis continues: the collection started with Mavi and Mavi Calypso a few years ago is now enriched with a new series. Thetis was born. Like its predecessors, it always uses the oxidation of metal for its artistic creations. We know that from this process indefinite chromatic shades are obtained from which non-repeatable and therefore unique shapes arise, that make each slab a collector's item to furnish interiors.
Why Thetis? This name evokes Greek mythology and indicates two female characters: the most beautiful of the Nereids, mother of Achilles and daughter of Nereus and Doris, and a titanide, daughter of Uranus and Gea, sister and wife of Oceanus. The etymology of this name could be lost in the Akkadian language and indicate the sea, but time offers us today a veil of uncertainty and everything is lost in mystery. [...by Luigi Luca Borrelli]
