The Pinocchio
Description
A poetic tribute to the delicate boundary between reality and illusion, the Pinocchio sculpture perches on a transparent bubble—his nose gilded in 24-carat Venetian gold leaf to highlight the playful absurdity of self-deception. Crafted in Italy and encased in plexiglass to underscore his detachment from reality, the work explores human vulnerability with both whimsy and insight. Made in Belgium by Gardeco, this piece is part of the *Terra* collection and stands as a sculptural reflection on self-awareness.
Hand-sculpted in fine ceramic by Pantaleo Musarò, each piece is rendered with artisanal care and psychological depth. Though technically not part of a numbered edition, its gallery-quality craftsmanship and conceptual weight make it a meaningful collectible for modern interiors.
Pantaleo Musarò is an Italian ceramist who weaves narrative and introspection through his work—often drawing upon mythology and human behaviour for expressiveness. With the *Pinocchio* sculpture, inspired by Carlo Collodi’s classic tale, he reflects on how we construct our reality by trying to conceal our vulnerabilities—an eternal motif portrayed with both irony and tenderness.
