Ceramic

Signed on the back.

Modelled from earthenware clay and subjected to intense heat, then treated using the traditional Japanese Raku reduction technique. This process yields a bronze-like finish, adding an intriguing dimension to the piece. Fascinating skin and lots of energy.
Research has shown sculptures to provide higher emotional support than paintings. Unlike paintings which are limited to two dimensions, the sculpture reflects life in three-dimensional space. Sculpture inhabits the space shared by the viewer. Sculptures are tactile, one can touch them and feel their texture, weight and shape. The sculpture has a surprise function that can trigger pleasant psychological arousal resulting in a deeply satisfying and genuinely invigorating aesthetic experience.
