I am Veronica Fabozzo, a ceramist on a journey through clay and alchemy. My hands were shaped by the ancient traditions of Montelupo Fiorentino and the symbolic metamorphoses of Prague: two roots that today intertwine into a single way of being and creating.
Ars Melusina is my philosophy of making.
It is about inhabiting the creative act as a space for listening, transformation and awareness. Melusina, an archetype of the threshold with a dual nature, inhabits multiple dimensions and embraces change, giving it form.
In Lucca, where a particular light glides over the stones, winds through the alleyways and guards secret gardens, this vision has found a home. Here, the two-tailed siren is not merely a frieze, but a secret sign that traverses the city’s time and places. In this light, my practice exists as a threshold between the inside and the outside. Ars Melusina is not merely a place; it is a practice that can exist in other places, within and beyond us, in clay as in life. Those who enter slow down. Hands meet the earth, and form emerges from the waiting.
For travellers seeking meaning.
Time takes shape
