'Agave' Libation Cup

About the Item

A striking, sculptural piece, 'Agave' comes from a dream of ancient times celebrations and precious offerings. This piece of work is very representative of Teste narrative yet simple designs. Agave is made of white stoneware, glazed with a matte sand colour with contrasting copper ash green edges. Decorative use. 2021 /// Juliette Teste French, 1986, lives and works in Paris, France. Teste’s work focuses on the visual surprise born from collages between contemporary culture, and references to ancient worlds. Often leading to meditative, or theatrically narrative pieces, her self-taught technique combined with a keen eye for colours allows her instinctive and playful approach. Teste works from photographic sources - museum catalogs or paintings. These are a starting point, then the piece becomes a instinctive mash-up of historical influences and personal fantasy.
