Add to Wishlist

Matteo Cibic is an Italian designer who runs an experimental sculpture studio in Vicenza. Describing himself as an object ethologist fascinated by pareidolia — the tendency to see faces in inanimate things — he channels that curiosity into playful, anthropomorphic objects, including the Homage collection created for Mmairo, the Carrara marble house, as a tribute to the quarries and sculptors of Tuscany.

“A painter’s drawings are like the personal diary of a scholar,” wrote critic Lamberto Vitali of Amedeo Modigliani’s sketches, and something of that elongated, confessional line resurfaces in the Pietro Vase. Cast in Bianco Michelangelo and Rosso Levanto marble with a smooth finish, its stretched silhouette treats vase-making as an almost subconscious, inherited gesture rather than a purely functional task. It is an object that carries the weight of art history lightly, on a shelf or console.
