The work of the creative Luigi Di Luca can be located in a field between art, design, and craftsmanship, yet it always preserves a singular independence. Founder of the artistic laboratory Luiss Perlanera in Milan, Luigi Di Luca perpetuates a family tradition of three generations of engravers on shells, mother of pearl, and coral, typical crafts of his native town Torre Del Greco. A classic and elegant style distinguishes Luigi Di Luca’s creations. The artist plays with noble materials and original shapes that are often irreverent and enriched with a shade of subtle irony. Such precious raw materials as ebony, shells, and mother of pearl are interpreted through innovative, biting solutions marked by pop cultural references.
