Scultura in terracotta policroma. Il soggetto rappresentato è Il Dio Mercurio, il messaggero degli dei, abbinato alla figura vi è il simbolo alchemico del Mercurio, elemento chimico della categoria dei metalli. Il simbolo alchemico si riferisce a tutti gli aspetti della parola Mercurio: per la sua caratteristica di assommare in sé proprietà antitetiche, essendo un metallo pesante ma anche volatile, sin da tempi remoti fu associato al dio Mercurio e al relativo pianeta, il cui simbolo riuniva insieme gli ideogrammi della Luna, del Sole e della Terra, cioè rispettivamente la coppa, il cerchio e la croce, a indicare una sintesi armonica dei tre archetipi fondamentali dell'astrologia: la falce della luna, posta in cima, esprimeva il predominio dell'aspetto femminile, vitale e fecondo, sulle proprietà del mercurio; il cerchio, simbolo del sole, rappresentava invece lo spirito maschile, ossia la capacità di conferire all'anima un'individualità e una coscienza, mentre la croce costituiva il sostrato materiale.

Paolo Camporese is a contemporary Italian artist. The artist has an innate passion for sculpture which he combines with a love for classical forms. The result is "learned" forms, which express his knowledge of reality but do not stop there. Paolo Camporese says that he wanders into the Past discovering through the Present the road to the Kingdom of the Spirit, as the Pre-romantic Child, rich in experience yet innocent, still tied to classical ideals but eager to free himself through the Models of modernity.

Finally, Camporese's main interest remains the Human Element and its analysis: the Faces and Heads of Children of the 17th or 18th century reflect universal psychological characteristics, shared through the continuous Flow of Time, but revisited and reconstructed through modern eyes and sensibilities.

Paolo Camporese was born in 1961, in Italy. He has exhibited all over Italy and has worked with the following galleries Minarte Treviso, Artequadri Camposampiero (PD), XXI century Gallery Padua, Viaducadiarte Bologna.
