Maria Lai. Fili che uniscono.

Translated title of the contribution: [Autom. eng. transl.] Maria Lai. Threads that unite.

Research output: Contribution to journalArticle

Abstract

The essay is dedicated to the Way of the Cross that Maria Lai gave to the Church of Sant'Antioco in her country: a very intense interpretation of the last acts of Christ's life through her language rich in cultural references, anthropology and humanity. Maria Lai's art is always nourished by her experience, that of a Sardinian woman, who returns to her land after a path of cultural formation strongly marked by her meeting with Arturo Martini, the artist who declared the death of sculpture, to resume a path never completely left. The specific analysis of the work, performed with a technique that combines embroidery and weaving, is part of the long activity of the Sardinian artist and in particular in her production dedicated to religious themes.
