Creating "Cucu"

Few years ago I started to experement with textile sculpting. Since I travel  I got  inspired from traditions and culture, every part and place of the world left me particular impression to be inspired. Since I live and work in Italy I got this idea to create my way to express antique symbol of italian "CUCU" from  Matera. Traditional Materas CUCU are from ceramic, I got this idea to create from textile and decoraite them in a style of painted animal portrait motives
