Chika

A few years ago, my studio was inside my brother-in-law’s props workshop. I loved working there, the sounds, the smells and the happenings reminded me of my childhood and my father’s workshop..
Every morning Chica, his dog, would greet me, who loved to play and would stand in the classic position of dogs who want to play, all the weight of the body leaning forward and the tusks staying up.
I decided to sculpt her pose, and I made an iron that was bent at this angle and on it I began to twist chains according to the size required by the body. I really enjoyed playing with the material, the mess Chika came out of.
