Pelle di luna
The shape, vaguely amphora-like, bears the myriad craters as if
they were encrustations of time, but there is a strange contrast
between the pockmarked appearance of the surface and its
unexpectedly soft and smooth response to the touch.
A contrast to which the colours of rock, earth and rust contribute,
so inconspicuous as to leave the hands wanting to touch again.
