Ceramic Sculpture Noemi Head by Vanessa Semaino
About the Item
The “Surolù” art works - this is artistic identity chosen by Vanessa Semaino - arise from the artist 's need to represent women’s condition today, particularly in their emotional states that confer their unique identities. These precious ceramic sculptures, entirely handcrafted and decorated, represent female Moor’s heads. They were conceived as an
expression of an introspective journey that relates Vanessa’s Sicilian origins and to her professional experience in the fashion stylistic field.
The artist introduces, for the first time, the repeated use of sociological themes of current relevance through a visually immediate language, represented in her art works with a contemporary pop aesthetic.
Noemi is an artwork representing gluttony in the Moor’s series of heads titled “The Seven Deadly Sins.” Noemi is a name derived from Greek, meaning sweetness, and everything about her evokes sensations of pleasure and sweetness, in a way clearly inspired by the famous chocolate treat “Bacio”. Noemi’s skin color is of a warm and soft shade of chocolate. Her eyes are intriguing and playful, evoking pleasure like a kiss on her lips. Noemi’s figure is adorned with a turban made of silver leaf, studded with small blue stars. This packaging seems to anticipate the pleasure one experiences when savoring her chocolate kiss. The crown she wears, a typical feature of Moor’s Sicilian heads, is decorated with large blue stars that characterize her and make her even more playful, emphasizing Noemi’s fun, indulgent, and cheerful aspect. The enchanting combination of temptation and playful, entertaining element captures the viewer’s attention, inviting them to immerse themselves in Noemi’s sweetness and in her fascinating and seductive world.

These precious ceramic sculptures, entirely handcrafted and decorated, represent female Moor’s heads. They were conceived as an expression of an introspective journey that relates Vanessa’s Sicilian origins and to her professional experience in the fashion stylistic field. The artist introduces, for the first time, the repeated use of sociological themes of current relevance through a visually immediate language, represented in her art works with a contemporary pop aesthetic. “Grimilde” is an artwork that addresses the dilemma of envy within the context of the seven deadly sins, through a representation that merges the wicked characters from fairy tales into a single figure. In it, there are recognizable references to Grimhilde, the witch from “Snow White”, the Queen of Hearts from “Alice in Wonderland,” and Cruella De Vil, all aimed at portraying envy in a world dominated by social media and the constant quest for approval and affirmation. The artwork is named after the evil queen from Snow White, and her figure is made evident by the turban that frames the face, emphasizing its features and wrinkled expression. The dress, with a black and white checkered pattern with red details, evokes that of the Queen of Hearts, as seen in the large red hearts decorating the crown, replacing the traditional acanthus leaves of typical Sicilian Moorish heads...Category
