You are what you are

A photo reportage made with a terracotta sculpture: the sculpture is photographed in different environments, indoors and outdoors, changing its nature, thanks to the context in which it is placed each time.
The photographic shot implements a levelling of meaning: sculpture and surrounding nature are subject to the same interpretative gaze.
Some of these photographs are chosen to become sculptures again.
