Pretending to be a human
Ros Khavro, 2023
Unique sculpture made of one piece of Oak Wood*- with a very beautiful texture and unique durability.
Signed by artist on the bottom.

(Dimensions: height: 70cm, width: 29cm, length: 29cm
Weight: 18kg)

The form is a contemporary reference to primitive ritual sculptures and primal portraits.
Expressive. Timeless. Magical.

Carved by the artist wit chainsaw from a solid piece of oak wood*, finished with a chisel. Tanned with fire (yakisugi**), painted with natural black stain to emphasizes character and raw wood pattern.

All this resulted in a unique piece of art rich in exceptional details.
The artwork will look great on a platform, pedestal or other base.

* (Oak is a long-lived material that does not rot when exposed to rain.
It's excellent to represent both inside and outside (in the garden or at the home entrance p. e.)

** (Yakisugi (焼杉) is a traditional Japanese method of wood preservation. By slightly charring the surface of the wood without combusting the whole piece, the wood becomes water-proof through the carbonisation and is thus more durable. It also protects against insects, as well as making the wood fire retardant.)
