Description from the seller

Unique Set of 2 Abstract 3D Wall Sculptures – "Fluid Drops"

About the Artist:

My name is Alena, and art has always been at the heart of my world. Six months ago, I began a new chapter in my life, moving from Belarus to Lithuania.
Back in Belarus, I built a professional career in the arts, focusing on two main paths. First, I managed my own art studio in Minsk, where I taught guests the techniques of "fluid art." Second, I created interior paintings that were sold in major retail stores across many Belarusian cities.
One of the highlights of my career was being invited twice to appear on Belarusian national television. It was an honor to conduct masterclasses and create interior paintings live on air for a wide audience.
Although I had to leave my familiar life behind, my experience, passion, and creative potential moved with me to Lithuania. I absolutely adore this place and truly feel at home here.
Now, I am channeling all my expertise into creating unique 3D wall art and sculptural pieces for your homes and offices. Inspired by new experiences and wonderful people, I pour my soul into every textured artwork I create.

About the Sculptures:

Add a touch of contemporary luxury and sophisticated minimalist design to your interior. This exclusive artwork consists of two separate volumetric pieces designed to be displayed together as a powerful structural diptych or styled individually.

Each piece features a unique, fluid, organic shape resembling molten metal or liquid drops, shifting beautifully under different lighting angles.

Detailed Specifications:
    •    Quantity: Set of 2 dynamic wall sculptures
    •    Dimensions (Each Piece): Height 30 cm (12 inches) × Width 20 cm (8 inches) × Depth 13 cm (5 inches)
    •    Weight: 1 kg per piece (Total weight for both items is 2 kg)
    •    Condition: Brand new, unused, in perfect gallery condition
    •    Signature: Original handmade creation by the artist


Medium & Technique:
Fully handcrafted using a lightweight expanded polystyrene core as a base, which is heavily coated with thick, solid layers of professional gypsum plaster and fine finishing putty. This specific technique gives each piece a substantial, heavy, and rock-solid feel (weighing 1 kg each despite the compact size), mimicking a solid stone sculpture. The surface is deliberately finished by hand to preserve the authentic, organic textures of hand-craftsmanship rather than a machine-made, factory-perfect look. Finally, it is sealed and coated with a metallic aerosol spray paint, highlighting every unique handmade detail.

Key Features:
    •    100% Completely Handmade: Every curve, indentation, and smooth surface is sculpted and shaped by hand. No molds are used, ensuring a truly one-of-a-kind texture.
    •    Solid & Premium Feel: Thanks to the rich plaster application, the sculptures have a satisfying weight and a premium gallery-quality finish.
    •    One-of-a-Kind Design: A unique, non-reproducible art piece that balances contemporary, industrial loft, and minimalist Scandinavian aesthetics.
    •    Ready to Hang: The pieces can be oriented on the wall according to your personal design preferences, allowing for a customized installation.
Securely packed for safe worldwide shipping. Perfect investment for collectors of modern abstract relief art and unique interior objects.
