AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

"Guardiana"
Contemporary sculpture that fuses ancient mysticism with modern artistic expression. The work adopts a pyramidal structure that mimics the texture of a sturdy construction of carved stone blocks, enriched with color nuances ranging from earth tones and reds to subtle turquoise glints at the joints.
At the apex of the pyramid emerges a serene, mystical, and timeless face, crowned by a central amulet that incorporates a bright element as a gem. The back of the sculpture shows the beauty of the handcrafted, organic modeling process in its hollow structure, where the hand-engraved signature is found.
A work with great subterranean force and undeniable visual magnetism.
Due to its notable dimensions, it is a piece with a strong presence, ideal for both contemporary art collectors and to preside over spaces of exclusive design.
Mixed media: extra-hard cement, fiberglass, and oil-based polychromy.
