In "Take Me Somewhere Nice", Maria Positano presents a new body of work made from recycled steel structures, selected by the artist during her site visits to salvage yards and scrap metal dealers. These steel structures have been shaped to resemble anthropological forms, and are coated with a variety of aged and malleable materials. A tar-coloured resin compound from the 1980’s, various waxes, acrylic nails andintricate gold gilding give a second lease of life to these once discarded items.
