Description from the seller
A ceramic Rhino sculpture, handcrafted by an artist from Krakow from fireclay, covered with a red effect glaze that discolors at the edges and curves. Fired at 1080°C (2300°F).
The sculpture has a signature in form of cavity on the bottom, and patterns of flowers and plants from my garden were used to decorate the animal's horns.
Dimensions:
Height ~16cm, Width ~28cm, Depth ~7cm
Weight:~1.3 kg
The sculpture is packaged in several layers of protective plastic and a thick cardboard box.
Seller's Story
Mario Klara – born in 1973 in the Bieszczady in Poland. Even as a child, working in his father’s brickworks, he was constantly in contact with clay, which sparked a genuine passion for this material. In 1993, he moved to Kraków, where he truly came into his own as an artist.
He is a self-taught artist and a staunch advocate of the trial-and-error method. His approach is unique—he designs and builds the tools and equipment necessary for creating sculptures on his own. In his projects, he doesn’t limit himself to clay but also uses metal, wood, and glass, combining them into unexpected forms.
His many years of experience continually yield increasingly ambitious projects. In his work, he employs original techniques and experiments with glaze like an alchemist in a laboratory, constantly seeking new forms of expression.
