His research explores the form and materiality of bodies, understood as physical presences, and what occurs beneath their surface. Since the beginning of his career, the artist has worked with a wide range of materials \u2014 from bronze to expanding polyurethane foam, from cast iron to glazed ceramic \u2014 employing production methods learned from artisans and specialised factories.<br \/><strong>Since 2017, Nicolas Deshayes, who is based in Dover, Kent, has developed strong ties with Italy, seeking out suggestions, methods and practices<\/strong> still preserved within artisanal traditions. Among the places central to this research is Nove, a town in the province of Vicenza internationally renowned for its ceramic production since the early eighteenth century. The artist is particularly interested in the process of mould casting, a technique in which the artisans of Nove are highly skilled practitioners.<br \/><strong>Drawn to local and artisanal techniques<\/strong>, the sculptor develops his practice and shapes his works through a continuous process of experimentation with materials, forms and subjects. The exhibition at the Foundation marks, for the first time, the artist\u2019s connection with the Vicenza area.      <\/p>\n\t\t\n<style>\n#text-2207478144 {\n  font-size: 1.1rem;\n  line-height:
