Matte Brown Ceramic TOTEM with Tiny Crescent Top on Soft Rectangle & Oval Forms

About the Item

One in a new series of Modern TOTEMS consisting of soft round or rectangular forms on small conical feet. The shapes begin as a solid piece. They are then hollowed out, stacked and the feet attached. The top of this one is a very small crescent shape, like a crown or maybe a transmitter. After the parts are attached, a brown/black clay slip was painted on and the piece was fired twice. This slip creates a matte surface with tiny silver specks and dark brown undertones, catching light and creating depth. Strong and majestic on its own, wonderful as an installation with several other sculptures. Completely hand built by artist Helena Starcevic. And because of the hand built nature and the process, each one is completely unique, one of a kind. Signed with artist's signature chop underneath.
