About the Item
White Totem is a unique ceramic sculpture by contemporary artist Tien Wen, dimensions are 100 × 16 × 16 cm (39.4 × 6.3 × 6.3 in).
The sculpture is signed comes with a certificate of authenticity.
The purity of this sculpture, its manipulation of volumes and forms, and its contrast between curves and lines and angles and curves makes it a quintessential piece of Tien Wen's art. The name of this artwork comes from a phrase used by some Native American Indians to refer to a mythological creature that is thought to be both a clan's guardian spirit and ancestor eponym.
Tien Wen naturally concentrated her work on pottery at the end of the 1990s due to her early fascination with Chinese porcelains, particularly the colours, enamel and celadons. As the years went by, the artist's love of shapes and the material itself led her to abandon the functional aspect and create more abstract works. The artist just follows her instinct and makes pieces in accordance with the lines that come to mind, giving her a clear vision of the finished product, while looking for the purest of shapes.
