Description from the seller
Description of the work:
This piece depicts a sculptural female figure, imbued with grace and solemnity, whose white face, finely cracked, evokes antique porcelain. The features are delicate, closed, lowered towards the ground, as if absorbed in deep thought.
The set is dominated by an intense crimson red, contrasting with shades of black and white, creating an atmosphere that is both dramatic and elegant.
The head is adorned with an impressive assembly of traditional elements: ribbons, embroidery, metallic pendants, ornamental motifs, and carved disks bearing decorative symbols. The complex texture of the fabrics and accessories gives the scene an impressive visual richness.
The posture, slightly inclined, enhances the impression of contemplation or melancholy.
Composition and Style
Artistic style: hyperrealist sculpture blended with an aesthetic inspired by traditional ornaments of East Asia.
Dominant palette: deep red, cracked white, touches of black and silver metal.
Visual construction: tight framing, focus on the face and textile details.
Textures: cracked porcelain, heavy embroidery, glossy surfaces, metallic elements.
Ambiance: solemn, intimate, dramatic, marked by silence and tradition.
Symbolism and Interpretation:
Red: the color of power, passion, life, and sacred rituals.
The cracked face: accepted fragility, the passage of time, beauty that survives the cracks.
Ornaments: the weight of tradition, cultural heritage, identity shaped by history.
The inclined posture: introspection, humility, respect, or a suspended moment between emotion and restraint.
The red/white/black contrast: a tension between strength and vulnerability, inner life and outer appearance.

Dimensions: 60 × 60 × 2 cm
