Description of tile Tile the Umbrella
The Umbrella is part of the SU.Real collection, designed by Marta Pignol for Carocim®, from the "Symbols" picture book.
A favorite object of Surrealism, the umbrella symbolizes poetic absurdity, the protection of the unconscious, and unexpected encounters. It embodies the strangeness of everyday life and the magic of free association.
Each tile is handcrafted using a demanding artisanal method. Composed of cement, sand, marble powder, and natural pigments, it is made without firing, using minimal water. Its texture and any slight irregularities reveal the artisan's touch and enhance its uniqueness.
