Bright Red Ceramic Sculpture, Hand Built, Six Soft Rectangles on Angled Legs
About the Item
Part of an ongoing exploration into the sculptural family of Modern Totemic Forms and Objects, all hand built in ceramic stoneware. They are "modern" in the Mid-Century Modern vein. They reference furniture and architecture, and even human-like life forms. This piece is composed of 6 rounded rectangles on angled legs, each part hand formed by the artist. The varied sizes of the rectangles and the play of balance adds to a dynamic presence. It is strong on its own but welcomes companion pieces to create the 'family' . It is the warmth of the ceramic sculpture that makes it lovely at home.
When grouped with one or 2 other pieces, it creates a conversation and invokes thoughts of family and community. Fully hand formed, fired twice.

Helena Starcevic Ceramics
Helena Starcevic Ceramics produces work that straddles the line between fine and decorative art. Each piece is one of a kind, hand-built entirely by the artist in her New York studio. Taking inspiration from the natural world, Ms. Starcevic's work includes references to the stark beauty of the desert, prehistoric cave paintings, and the human form (within and without). Everything is filtered through Ms. Starcevic’s own singular aesthetic, at once quiet yet strong, meditative, and beautiful. Pieces are made in different clays and finishes, and at different scales. Groupings are available. Helena Starcevic’s ceramic pieces are held in private collections across the US and Europe. She has held numerous residencies including one at the Museum of Art and Design in New York City.
