About the Item
White Amphora is a unique polished artificial stone sculpture by contemporary artist Pavlína Kvita, dimensions including brass base are 165 cm × 50 cm × 50 cm (65 × 19.7 × 19.7 in). The sculpture is signed and comes with a certificate of authenticity.
The mysterious figures with forms that are both archaic and futuristic emerge in the sculptures of Czech artist Pavlína Kvita as a result of her exploration of her inner world. These anthropomorphic or zoomorphic beings, silent entities existing outside of time, dominate space with a combination of strength and balance that is given to them by their dynamic, streamlined, and abstracting lines. The sculptures created by Pavlína Kvita are the end result of the artist manipulating shapes and their endless possibilities in a circular process of creation/transformation/destruction.

Pavlína Kvita
The sculptures of the Czech artist Pavlína Kvita come to life from the exploration of her inner world, resulting in the creation of mysterious figures with forms that are both archaic and futuristic. These anthropomorphic or zoomorphic creatures, silent presences outside of time, impose themselves in space with a blend of strength and balance, conferred on them by their dynamic, streamlined lines, tending towards abstraction. Pavlína Kvita’s sculptures are the end result of a circular process of creation/transformation/destruction which the artist establishes with the material, manipulating shapes and their infinite possibilities. “I really need to feel the work in my hands, to find it by breaking it down and destroying it, and then rebuilding it again. For me it is a process of destruction and creation, just like the process we see at work in life.”

- "Ghost (Big Wings), " Mixed Media Mosaic, 2023Located in Chicago, ILIntricate, ethereal and highly textured, the abstract compositions of Japanese mosaic artist Toyoharu Kii reflect a sophisticated approach to the technical art of mosaic making. Classically trained in Florence, Italy, Kii creates his modern mosaics using traditional techniques and materials, including hand-cut Italian marble and Venetian smalti glass. Eschewing the figural in favor of the abstract, his mosaics rely on contrasts of pattern and form to convey complex themes and achieve visual harmony. Toyoharu Kii’s latest body of work “Geophytes” continues themes of rebirth and renewal. A reference to plants that regrow from hidden elements beneath the earth’s surface, the series celebrates the resilience of the natural world. Each mosaic is imagined as a landscape that documents a history of environmental damage due to human activity, and the subsequent return of nature as a restorative force. Through the juxtaposition of patterns and the interplay of order and disorder, Kii creates man-made “images of destruction” and finds hope in the future by “reconstructing nature.” In this mosaic entitled "Ghost (Big Wings)," Kii takes a more representational approach to his storytelling, creating figurative drawings out of thin lines of tesserae. The mosaic belongs to his “Ghost” triptych, wherein Kii uses “wings” to represent the presence of a heavenly being, the ghosts of past spirits or the presence of an angel or guardian. In “Ghost (Big Wings),” Kii mourns the extinction of many creatures due to environmental change and imagines their lonely spirits wandering the earth. Enveloping their silhouettes is “a bird with big wings,” writes Kii, depicted here within a dense mosaic of abstract patterns, a symbol for nature’s healing power. “The bird consoles...Category

I am impassioned with biomorphic abstract forms. As an artist, I am aware of and respect the art movements of my time, but to create, I remove myself from the influences of this time and retreat into a private space where I can experiment and explore the possibilities of each phase of my inner life." - Khang Pham-New Khang Pham was born in war-torn South Vietnam...Category
