Wauja/ Turuza. Monkey Sculpture, 2021, Brazilian exotic wood
About the Item
La sculpture intitulée "Wauja/Turuza. Singe, 2021" est une œuvre d'art réalisée par l'artiste indigène Turuza, appartenant à l'ethnie Wauja du Haut-Xingu, au Brésil. Fabriquée à partir de bois exotique brésilien, plus précisément de Piranheira, cette pièce artistique est également agrémentée de pigments naturels à base de "jenipapo" et de coquilles d'escargot.
À l'origine, cette sculpture était utilisée comme objet symbolique au sein de la communauté indigène Wauja. Turuza, en tant qu'artiste contemporain, a créé cette œuvre en utilisant des techniques et des matériaux traditionnels. La sculpture a été façonnée dans une pièce massive de bois, et ses motifs peints à la main lui confèrent un aspect à la fois graphique et sculptural.
En plus de son caractère artistique, cette œuvre s'engage socialement. En effet, 15% du prix de vente de la sculpture sera reversé à une association qui œuvre pour la protection de la région du parc du Xingu, ainsi que pour la préservation du mode de vie de la population autochtone qui y réside. Ainsi, l'achat de cette sculpture contribue directement à la préservation de l'écosystème local et au soutien des communautés indigènes de la région.
