Description from the seller
WXYZ (1980) – “322-0” – Exceptional Rare Glossy Glazed Porcelain Sculpture – Unique Original Artwork (1/1)
Original Handcrafted Porcelain Sculpture – Glossy White Glaze – Unique Piece (1/1)
An exceptionally rare experimental work documenting the origins of WXYZ's iconic “322-1”.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
THE “322-0” – THE ORIGINS OF AN ICON
Before creating his now-iconic “322-1”, French street artist WXYZ spent three years exploring geometric forms and sculptural compositions.
Using LEGO bricks, he assembled and rearranged countless combinations, searching for the perfect balance between simplicity, geometry and architectural structure.
These experiments gave birth to a series of unique sculptural studies, primarily executed in wood and ceramics, which the artist named “322-0”.
These extremely rare works document the creative journey that ultimately led to the emergence of the “322-1”, the refined and minimalist figure that has become WXYZ's artistic signature.
The “322-0” is not a variation of the “322-1”. It is its origin.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
AN EXCEPTIONALLY RARE SCULPTURE
Each “322-0” represents a unique stage in the artist's three-year exploration of form, volume and geometric abstraction.
Created as experimental works rather than as part of a regular production series, these sculptures are exceptionally rare and hold a particularly significant place in WXYZ's artistic development.
They offer a fascinating insight into the evolution of an artistic identity, preserving the original research that preceded the creation of his signature figure.
This sculpture is therefore much more than a porcelain artwork: it is an irreplaceable testimony to the birth of an artistic icon.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
GLOSSY WHITE PORCELAIN – THE ELEGANCE OF PURE FORM
Entirely handcrafted in genuine porcelain and finished with a luminous glossy white glaze, this unique sculpture expresses the remarkable beauty of geometric simplicity.
Its architectural silhouette is composed of carefully balanced rectangular volumes, creating a striking interplay of symmetry, proportion and sculptural depth.
Unlike the artist's more colorful experimental works, this monochromatic creation places the emphasis entirely on form, light and material.
The brilliant white glaze reflects light across the sculpture's geometric surfaces, revealing subtle variations in texture, delicate reliefs and discreet patterns that emerge depending on the viewing angle.
The immaculate porcelain finish gives the work an almost architectural purity, evoking minimalist sculpture, modernist design and the refined traditions of ceramic craftsmanship.
Its apparent simplicity conceals a sophisticated exploration of volume, geometry and spatial balance.
A remarkable encounter between the purity of white porcelain, the elegance of glossy ceramic glazing and the architectural strength of geometric abstraction.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
FROM GRAFFITI TO SCULPTURE
WXYZ's sculptural universe remains deeply connected to his origins in graffiti.
The name “322-1” refers to Article 322-1 of the French Penal Code, concerning damage to property — a symbolic reference to the artist's urban artistic roots.
The “322-0” sculptures represent the essential research that preceded this iconic figure, marking the transition from graffiti to a distinctive three-dimensional artistic language.
