AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A unique handmade piece
Sculpture of a drinking horse in patinated terracotta with an iron base, ideal for styling interiors in both classical and contemporary spaces.
The technique used is the traditional modeling of clay followed by kiln firing, so this is not a 3D print.
This sculpture represents the head of a drinking horse. The shape of the snout is elegant and stylized, with soft lines that convey a sense of movement and vitality.
The surface features a rich texture that reflects light in a fascinating way, adding depth to the work. Mounted on a simple base, the sculpture is perfect for indoor display, drawing attention to its beauty and its symbolic meaning.
It evokes feelings of nobility and freedom, portraying the horse not only as an animal but also as a symbol of grace and strength.
This artistic piece can stimulate contemplation, inviting viewers to reflect on the connection between humans and nature, and on the timeless allure of horses.

His practice explores artistic language through an iconographic vocabulary that unites tradition and experimentation. He uses materials such as stone, marble, clay and resin, revealing a deep connection with his cultural roots. His work tackles contemporary social issues, often reflecting on current tragedies. Alibrio reinterprets the recognizable through a logic of fragmentation, stimulating critical reflection. His mastery of materials and rigorous approach contribute to developing an autonomous artistic language, capable of expressing tension and strength.
The piece will come with a certificate of authenticity and will be shipped in rigid packaging.
