Ceramic Religious Modernist Wall Art, Pewter Colored Virgin Mary and Child

About the Item

Large brutalist ceramic wall art representing the Virgin Mary and Christ Child. This cross is painted in slate or pewter shades of black and dark grey with a subtle matte sheen finish. The expressive faces and draped fabric carved in hollow relief add a unique depth and visual intrigue to the artwork. The raw essence of brutalist architecture is captured by its unadorned aesthetic and bold geometric designs. The dark color palette combined with a rustic texture underscores the emotive quality. The Virgin Mary's protective demeanor and the Christ Child's innocence are uniquely portrayed. Their expressive faces, carved in hollow relief, breathe life into the piece, creating a deep emotional connection between the viewer and the artwork. Our cross collection encompasses a wide range of styles, from futurist modernism to raw brutalism, offering many possibilities for creating a custom wall of modernist crucifixes. Alternatively, this exceptional piece serves as a unique and meaningful gift for those who appreciate religious items that embody the spirit of artistic exploration.
