Article description

Buttarsi (Throw yourself), 2015, is the title of the work by Marika Ricchi (Cesena 1987).

The installation features a steel and wooden trampoline on which two feet in resin and marble dust are placed, the result of a real-life cast by the author herself.
These specific anatomical parts refer to a body portrayed in the crucial moment of abandonment. The feet, about to throw themselves, will leave the stability of "touching the ground", to experience a new, volatile, unknown dimension.

"Throw yourself" is a metaphor for important and critical moments in life. The author is not new in dealing with existential and important issues through playful, amusing, light and joyful images.

A young sculptress who has been in the art world for some years, she already boasts numerous participations in competitions, important and personal group exhibitions in private and public locations.
