I have two years of experience working at a wood shop. My motivation to join Accademia was to expand my knowledge of craftsmanship and to accomplish the master's course. I see the incredible value of furniture design because there are no longer as many carpenters as we've had in the past. Due to the advancement of factories and machinery, there is no longer the beauty of fitted furniture which made me start to question.

Little detail in the corner of Mural, by the sides of disciples and the Jesus in middle. Almost like a decorative frame, elegant sculpture. Framing the last moment of the pure holiness on a wall.
