Description from the seller

Handmade glazed ceramic bust – modern art, ca. 1980

An expressive handmade ceramic bust, dating from around 1980, executed in the style of modern art and featuring a richly glazed finish. The sculpture presents a stylized human representation, where form and expression are central.

The bust is hand-formed and finished with a glossy glaze that creates depth and vibrant color nuances. The combination of free modeling and the play of light on the glaze gives the object a dynamic and artistic character.

Characteristic of ceramic art from this period is the emphasis on individuality and expression, applying traditional techniques within a contemporary vocabulary. This piece aligns well with that approach and forms a striking decorative object.

A distinctive work of art that works both as a statement piece in an interior and within an art or ceramics collection.
