I am a wood artist, living in Valle di Ledro among the mountains, lakes and blooming green meadows of Trentino. Here in the silence I admire with wonder the slow flow of life, the changing of the seasons and the magic of spring when the flowers bloom. In me a “flower within” is born when my works give me an emotion, when from a flower or a stone I extract the color to paint an artifact making it unique and alive.

Her tapestries “print them, stain them, enrich them” with gold and silver leaf and with the inclusion of Murano glass details. He chooses velvet because it is pure magic, and the color is a continuous play with glass that appears and disappears depending on the point of observation. Velvet and glass, in their tactile essence, seemingly distant, indulged with sensitivity, turn out instead, close and complementary.

Sono un artista del legno, vivo in Valle di Ledro tra i monti, laghi e prati verdi in fiore del Trentino. Qui nel silenzio ammiro con stupore il lento scorrere della vita, il cambio delle stagioni e la magia della primavera quando i fiori sbocciano. In me un “fiore dentro” nasce quando i miei lavori mi danno un’emozione, quando da un fiore o da una pietra estraggo il colore per dipingere un manufatto rendendolo unico e vivo.

CedriMartini Design Factory was born from two different design experiences, Andrea Martini from research in art, sculpture as creative expression, Rienzo Cedri from industrial design, the different methods of visualization and three-dimensional modeling dedicated to jewelry design
The project began as if for fun, like so many other things we have done together. It began from a dream: to create a series of fun sculptures/creatures from a colorful, lively and eclectic world. After several prototypes and caught up in the excitement of what we had created, we decided to start an art edition.
At first it was to be 3 sculptures, then 6, but in the end we opted for 9 like the place where they are born, Nove: “Land of Ancient Ceramic Tradition.”

Founded in 1910, through three generations of the Del Savio family, the Pordenone-based company has evolved from the initial production of “Venetian” and “Palladian” flooring, through more structured processing of marbles for furniture components and cladding, always combining high craftsmanship with state-of-the-art technological equipment. In 2020 Del Savio started a new course of business with the artistic direction of Zanellato/Bortotto, who intervened on traditional processing with new processes and languages, hybridizing marble with other materials; the designers thus paved the way for the project, introducing concepts of lightness, color, and contamination, which made marble even more refined, textured and precious.
