Author: Miguel Nieto (Spanish sculptor/Ceramist).
Title of the work: "Forma"
Style: Brutalist / Organic / Modernist mid-century.

Design: It is an abstract anthropomorphic piece that suggests a mask or a stylized face. It features the strong vertical axis that divides the piece and the central cavity with vertical grooves, creating a powerful play of light and shadow.
