Objects and forms tied concretely to daily life, objects that bring beauty to functional things because they carry within them the poetics of a time and of a way of feeling, seeing and touching.<\/p><p>Shaping clay was perhaps humankind\u2019s first manual activity, and perhaps the first moment in which it became \u2018necessary\u2019, through objects made to hold and preserve liquids and food, to give those very objects grace and beauty. The decorative side of an object has always carried a powerful meaning, as important as its function. Anna Lisa Riva, a tireless experimenter with materials and techniques, has built a singular dialogue with ceramics since her very first pieces: for her, working with clay is a challenge, and she puts every object through ever-new metamorphoses, almost following a secret dialogue between herself and the material. The forms and themes of many of her creations echo a poetic, narrative sensibility that comes straight from her installation work: thorns, hearts, cubes, cylinders\u2026 setting up a dialogue dense with references and quotations. A journey backwards, from imagination towards reality.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-6a6d5c8 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default elementor-invisible\" data-id=\"6a6d5c8\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;,&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-extended\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-9909cd8\" data-id=\"9909cd8\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-42c40b0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"42c40b0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<ul class=\"riva-about-strip\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/rivaceramiche.com\/en\/product\/spine-nere-2\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/rivaceramiche.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/spine-nere-rc-scu-013-1-429x524.jpg\" width=\"429\" height=\"524\" alt=\"Sacro cuore nero con spine, smalto lucido\"><span class=\"riva-about-strip__theme\">Thorns<\/span><span class=\"riva-about-strip__piece\">Spine nere<\/span><\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/rivaceramiche.com\/en\/product\/rossocore\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/rivaceramiche.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/rossocore-rc-scu-003-1-429x524.jpg\" width=\"429\" height=\"524\" alt=\"Sacro cuore rosso lucido\"><span class=\"riva-about-strip__theme\">Hearts<\/span><span class=\"riva-about-strip__piece\">Rossoc\u00f2re<\/span><\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/rivaceramiche.com\/en\/product\/avorio-e-blu-drops\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/rivaceramiche.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/avorio-e-blu-drops-rc-cub-001-1-429x524.jpg\" width=\"429\" height=\"524\" alt=\"Vaso a cubo avorio con macchie blu\"><span class=\"riva-about-strip__theme\">Cubes<\/span><span class=\"riva-about-strip__piece\">Avorio e blu drops<\/span><\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/rivaceramiche.com\/en\/product\/panna\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/rivaceramiche.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/panna-rc-tub-004-1-429x524.jpg\" width=\"429\" height=\"524\" alt=\"Vaso cilindrico color panna\"><span class=\"riva-about-strip__theme\">Cylinders<\/span><span class=\"riva-about-strip__piece\">Panna<\/span><\/a><\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-d1362d7 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default elementor-invisible\" data-id=\"d1362d7\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;,&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-extended\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-fbef1db\" data-id=\"fbef1db\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f1af700 riva-pullquote elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"f1af700\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>\u00abObjects that become vessels of poetry and thought.\u00bb<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-657c979 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"657c979\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>What fascinates her is the vulnerability of this material: every object by Anna Lisa Riva is the outcome of reflection and poetic preparation, a dialogue with the material and its metamorphoses, and so she creates objects that become vessels of poetry and thought, the result of a deferred time, objects bound to waiting and surprise. Drawn to the meeting of the elements, the fire that turns earth into an object, Riva brings about these transformations both by manipulating form and through colour. Colour, in fact, plays a central role: bright glazes, monochromes or chromatic contrasts for surfaces that reflect the light and converse with the surrounding space. Riva\u2019s ceramics stand out for their gestural energy: overflows, scratches, words, lines and openings that bring the surface to life with strength and poetry. For Riva, ceramics is a fundamental laboratory in shaping a creative process as rigorous as it is poetic.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c5cf7bc riva-about-signature elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"c5cf7bc\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><em>\u2014 Francesca Alfano Miglietti, 2026<\/em><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-13d3688 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default elementor-invisible\" data-id=\"13d3688\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-extended\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-60 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-77537d9\" data-id=\"77537d9\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1686603 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"1686603\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">The studio<\/p>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1d674cf elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"1d674cf\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Bringing a world into the world<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7dcf2ff elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"7dcf2ff\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>This project grew out of a need: the need to make, to create, to bring \u201ca world into the world\u201d.<\/p><p>Every vase and every object is a one-of-a-kind piece, and as such hard to place among mass-produced or industrial goods.<\/p><p>My way of working is a process with a more artistic and experimental nature, so I am not concerned with imperfections in the shape or the glaze, with distortions, flaws, or simply with whether the vase holds water well.
