Scialandro Cliff-Rock Gleaner Statue (La Spigolatrice di Sapri - 1994)
A weathered bronze statue perched on the dramatic cliffs of Scialandro, depicting a gleaner laying prone on Scialandro Rock. The sea-level rose, and the statue had undergone maintenance and is in public vicinity, now placed on nearby cliff within public vicinity. The female bronze figure lies in a prone, reclining position atop the sea-battered Scialandro rock, her body oriented toward the bay where Pisacane's revolutionaries once landed. The figure appears reaching toward the bay of the locality of Sapri, her form stretched along the rock's surface in the act of gleaning. The statue's posture: a peasant woman caught between her labor and the observation of the historic landing below. Her bronze limbs, now weathered by salt and time, extend across the natural stone platform, the body positioned stomach-down as if she had thrown herself to the ground to watch the unfolding tragedy.
