Italian term or phrase: sale con inclusioni materiche
E’ il bianco a predominare, puro e libero come nelle grandi tele monocrome o declinato in un’elegante palette di variazioni tonali, come nelle superfici di sale con inclusioni materiche dal forte valore espressivo e simbolico.
Dal nero al bianco, attraverso il colore, il segno ha preso forma e si è evoluto verso un’immagine di semplicità e purezza che è riflesso ed augurio di pace.

halls with material inclusions


Explanation:
It is white that predominates, pure and free as in the large monochrome canvases or declined in an elegant palette of tonal variations, as in the halls with material inclusions of strong expressive and symbolic value.

Asker: This is a literal translation and makes no sense to me. What does "Inclusions" refer to?
