About the Item

Turuza Wauja Sculptural Bench Kamalu Hai, 2021 Brazilian wood Magono natural pigment based on "jenipapo" and "urucum" and snail shell. Carved from solid Piranheira wood and adorned with traditional Wauja graphic motifs using natural pigments, Sculptural Bench Kamalu Hai is a powerful example of contemporary Indigenous art from the Upper Xingu region of Brazil. Turuza Wauja’s work reflects a living tradition, deeply rooted in ancestral knowledge yet fully engaged in the present, where mythology, identity, and aesthetic innovation meet. This sculpture stands as both a cultural and a singular artistic statement within the broader landscape of contemporary art.
