2022

About the Item

Jos de Wit Baby 40 x 27 x 29 cm eucalyptus wood Painted with acrylic paint Dutch artist Jos de Wit can be seen exclusively in our gallery with his very special sculptures and paintings. On both levels he allows his world to merge with realism. This gives a very special and surprising view of 'daily reality'. This baby is made afteer drawings he saw made by the great Leonardo da Vinci. The form of a newborn almost a ball made him enthusiastic to create this sculpture. An encounter with the artist is an encounter with 'the world of the artist'. Jos created a world all his own in his house. A world of musical instruments, beautiful wood and with statues made of the same wood, and paintings everywhere you go. A wonderful artist with special ideas and works. He does not shy away from any subject in his work. Often small gems full of special finds show a very personal view of reality. Jos de Wit's reality can be both raw and loving. Realism does not stop at what the eye can see. Surprising combinations and shapes make a wrecked bicycle a gem and a school of fish a feast of colors and movement.

  • Abyssal Shrines
    By Sarah Louise Davey
    Located in Philadelphia, PA
    This is an original, unique ceramic sculpture by Sarah Louise Davey on a black wooden base. The piece measures 44” x 19” x 21”. Please note: This piece is pictured with the base on top of a black pedestal and a white pedestal. The black base of the sculpture is included, but the pedestals are not included. Artist Statement: "The art of making, for me, is very much a response to the human condition of needing to connect to one another, as well as to what lies just beyond the borders of our realities. I am drawn to the idea that art can have the ability to affect those who look upon it, allowing these portraits to be conduits to a realm within our subconscious. Although my females are hard ceramic sculptures, their hollow, eggshell-like interiors feel like a glove or a mask that can easily be slipped on and off, like the psychic armor of a distant self. An introspective dialogue is started as I make each piece, invoking a surreal understanding of the physical and emotional auras of these strange beauties. Heavy in symbolism, they illustrate the psychological scope of a hybrid creature. Their wide-eyed gazes are meant to portray an emotional duality that is constantly evolving. Some are alter egos of women on the verge...
