Davide Hjort Di Fabio’s sculptures emerge through processes of casting, repetition, and material transformation. Often beginning with fragments of his own body, the works move away from direct representation and become unfamiliar forms that exist between the bodily and the architectural, the intimate and the constructed. Rather than presenting the body as fixed or complete, his practice explores it as something in constant transition – shaped through memory, sensation, and its surroundings.

In "A walk in the park" (2026), the relief-like glazed stoneware form originates from a cast of the artist’s torso. Through processes of reshaping and transformation, the body becomes abstracted into a dense yet soft form that appears held, compressed, or slowly changing shape.
