Description from the seller
Handmade ceramic bust – modern art, circa 1980
An expressive handmade ceramic bust, dating from around 1980, executed in the style of modern art. The sculpture shows a stylized human representation, with form, texture and expression at the center.
The bust is hand-formed and features a lively, almost painterly finish with subtle color variations and a glossy glaze. The free modeling and visible hand of the maker give the object a unique and artistic character.
Characteristic for modern ceramic art from this period is the emphasis on expression and individuality, where traditional techniques are combined with a contemporary vocabulary of form. This piece fits seamlessly with that and forms a striking decorative object.
A special work of art that works both as a statement piece in an interior and within a ceramic or art collection.
