"Childhood" by Marco Pedri
"The sculpture was designed with a vector program. After that with a water jat machine the various part of the mosaic was cut in three different kind of marble recombained togheter to became the shape of the first version of Super Mario.
The choice is not random, Mario represents the childhood of my generation but was also, at the time, the childhood of a new generation of videogames. Propose it in a pixel format but carved in marble is a new way to approach between marble sculpture and new media, and in short a new childhood of communication."
