Patrizia Italiano's Ceramics at Maison & Objet 2025
Palermo-based designer Patrizia Italiano presented her ceramic works at Maison & Objet 2025 in Paris, held in the prestigious Craft section with a Sceno stand usually reserved for French exhibitors. Her collection includes anthropomorphic vases like Carmelina, Totuccio, and the Ubriaco Tree, as well as palm trees inspired by Palermo's Botanical Garden. The collections 'Il Giardino Barocco' and 'I Venditori di Sicilia' reinterpret traditional Moor's heads with contemporary design, avoiding folkloric clichés. Italiano's atelier in Palermo trains a creative team in ancient manufacturing techniques. The exhibition also features furniture by Studio 4e (architects Fabio Costanzo and Maria Rosaria Piazza), with tables designed as trees with rotating tops. Italiano cites Andrea Branzi as an influence and draws inspiration from Sicily and Filicudi. She previously exhibited in Milan, New York, Tokyo, and the UAE.
