Bhaca Medium Terracotta Planter by Indigenus
Located in Geneve, CH
Bhaca Medium Terracotta Planter by Indigenus Designed by Andile Dyalvane Dimensions: Ø 77,9 x H 95,3 cm. Materials: Stone. Weight: 80 kg. Different colors and sizes are available. Please contact us. The Bhaca is a completely personal and original range of stone planters that reflect ceramicist Andile Dyalvane’s connection to his Xhosa roots while celebrating his mastery of an elemental material of choice – clay. Bhaca - meaning scarification - is a traditional Xhosa method of finely cutting the skin (usually on the cheeks) to mark initiation, clan identification, or healing. Andile desires to preserve and share his cultural roots of this ancient tradition by cutting into clay and pushing open the cuts where they intersect as if to open the flesh. The Bhaca has been electronically scanned and scaled from smaller clay vessels...
