Pierotti’s work draws from a rich visual and
conceptual history ranging from traditional porcelain
tea sets to simple constructions that resemble an
attack vehicle you would see on the Empire Strikes
Back.
Drawing from these disparate mythologies Pierotti is
able to imbue his objects with multiple meanings. By
contrasting a medium with such a long traditional
history with a form that is so awkward yet intriguing
he is able to present an object that possesses a
duality of meaning. A simple shape with a complicated
history.
