Matteo Lucca was born in 1980 in Forlì, Italy, where he lives and works. He graduated in sculpture from the Academy of Fine Arts in Bologna in 2007. His research, which aims to establish a dialogue between Man and Earth, is expressed through different materials. “The Earth is a welcoming home to be preserved. We human beings are infinitely small in front of the majesty and power of Nature, whose voice is lost in our frenzies, obsessions and selfishness. In several respects this reflection led me to a symbolic and archetypal origin linked to materials and their meanings". Matteo Lucca's art is sacred and ritual, a primitive and ancestral art to be touched. Giving a human form to bread means telling the story of human beings, stories and cultures that bread has taken on over time.
