Inferno e Paradiso – Heaven and Hell

This large circular glass piece is an autobiographical work. It was a colossal undertaking in terms of the technical expertise needed to render the details. The form was achieved by casting, melting and stratifying eight layers of glass that were hand cut and painted. The piece was placed on a wooden support. It depicts passion, joy, pain and labour, united by a mirrored heart in which Chiara Ferraris sees Purgatory.
