Ana Calbucci invites a deep dive into manual making as a practice of presence and connection. Far from being limited to production or technique, the artisan's gesture is understood as a rite — a revelation of the sacred that inhabits the everyday. Between body, material, and imagination, the creative act transforms into a space for listening and metamorphosis, where shaping the world is also shaping oneself. Inspired by Eliade, Bachelard, Heidegger, and Jung, the reflection explores the sacredness of the gesture, the silent pedagogy of the material, and the symbolic power that emerges from the encounter between hand and imagination. By creating, the artist not only gives form but inaugurates worlds and opens passages between the visible and the invisible.
