Marina Orlando, italiana, da poco più di una decina di anni modella l’argilla realizzando forme a volte riconoscibili e a volte assolutamente immaginarie come se nuotasse in un mare fantastico. Preferisce, tra le diverse terre, l’argilla bianca che cuoce in forno elettrico a bassa temperatura fondendo e sovrapponendo smalti e cristalline.
