About the Item

This expressive ceramic owl sculpture by Doug Delind is a striking example of Brutalist modern art fused with traditional Raku pottery techniques. Signed on underside. Circa 1990s.The stylized form captures the owl in a frontal pose, wings flared into a broad, shield-like shape that creates a powerful visual presence. Richly textured and pierced with a rhythmic pattern of perforations, the surface features an earthy color palette of smoky whites, metallic coppers, and charred blacks—hallmarks of the Raku firing process. A mix of geometric motifs, including checkerboards and spirals, enhance its abstract charm while lending it a totemic, almost mystical quality. Resting atop an organic, rock-like ceramic base, this sculpture is both decorative and symbolic—a reflection of wisdom, nature, and artistic experimentation. A rare and captivating piece that bridges modernist design with primal, handmade craftsmanship. Dimensions: measures 13.5 inches tall, 12 inches wide, and 7 inches deep. In very good condition.
