Simbiosi is quite typical of the work of Afro Celotto. The superb use of orange and blue in this vase is fun. In addition, the abstract and matte surface nature of this use of this reticello and hot blown technique in murano glass is a thoughtful statement.
There is a definite front and back, with a clear axis through the piece, that includes multiple incalmos, cane, murrini, reticello, avventurine and delicate cold working – all in the same beautiful art glass sculpture.
