About the Item

Gorgeous and unique handmade wall sculpture ''Fish'' by Belgian artist: Jules De Waele for Pia Manu in 1973. This unique sculpture is carved from a large piece of natural stone and decorated with glass and concrete. These sculptures are very rare and hard to find and represent the beauty of the Brutalist movement. The piece has been singed by the artist & Pia Manu and is fully original. The most stunning part of this sculpture is the large eye which has been made out of different pieces of glass. When the sunlight shines true the eye it reveals an amazing amount of colors, and then you can see that trail of glass under the eye has the same color patterns as the glass used inside the eye. Creating a wonderful effect that makes the sculpture appear alive. The colours of the glass and the concrete fins combines so well with the green natural stone that the sculpture always draws your attention. If desired you can place lights behind the sculpture to increase this effect even more.
