About the Item
Handmade Ceramic – One of a Kind
Senzo Duma Ceramics is part of a modern movement in South African ceramic art that blends realism with stylized, often whimsical forms. The studio is known for its highly detailed hand-sculpted and hand-painted works that celebrate the country’s biodiversity, particularly through dramatic storytelling and symbolic animal representations.
Thabo Mbhele, the sculptor of the tiger vase (SKU: S61-2023), is known for creating dynamic, muscular forms that capture animals mid-motion. His work often highlights predator-prey interactions, which can be interpreted as metaphors for power, survival, or protection. Tigers—while not native to Africa—are used in Senzo Duma’s work as expressive, exotic symbols of strength and majesty, giving the pieces a mythological or fantasy-like quality. This aligns with the studio’s broader aesthetic of vibrant, imaginative wildlife scenes that often feel theatrical or narrative-driven.
Painter Junoth Ncube contributes to this effect with rich, saturated color palettes and precise botanical details, often incorporating South African flora like proteas and lilies. The work isn’t just decorative—it can be seen as a form of sculptural storytelling that blends whimsy, cultural reverence for nature, and technical excellence.
