Marlene Rose (b. 1967) Head of Buddha, 2004 Sand Cast Glass and Steel Sculpture
Located in Austin, TX
Marlene Rose’s “Buddha’s Head” is a harmonious fusion of ancient wisdom and contemporary craftsmanship. The artist’s mastery lies in her ability to distill profound spirituality into tangible form.
The sculpture portrays Buddha’s visage—a timeless symbol of enlightenment and compassion. The closed eyes evoke meditation, inviting viewers to explore their own inner landscapes. The serene expression transcends time, whispering secrets of inner tranquility.
The sand cast technique lends an organic texture to the sculpture. Each grain seems to hold whispers of ancient mantras, echoing across centuries. The pinkish hue, reminiscent of dawn’s first light, bathes the head in a gentle glow.
The ushnisha—the cranial bump atop Buddha’s head—symbolizes heightened consciousness. It’s as if the artist captured a moment of enlightenment frozen in time. The tight curls framing the face signify wisdom gained through introspection.
Mounted on a sleek cylindrical stand, the sculpture defies gravity. Its weightlessness mirrors the spiritual ascent—a journey from the mundane to the sublime. The dark background accentuates the head’s ethereal presence.
“Buddha’s Head” beckons viewers to seek solace within themselves. It whispers, “Find your inner temple, where silence blooms like lotus petals.”
Marlene Rose’s creation transcends mere art...

Eastern Han Dynasty Terracotta Model of a Paper Mill , China '206BC - 220AD'
Located in San Pedro Garza Garcia, Nuevo Leon
Slab pottery constructed Model of a Paper Mill, in Green and Cream Color Glazed Terracotta having a peaked roof – open walled form with a mechanical pounder and a large round storage container. Light blue-green mottled glazed surface with some iridescence patina to the glaze. The Iridescence is a refraction of the layers on the glass that produces multicolor hues & metallic luster, and only develops after one thousand years of being buried in the ground. An unquestionable mark of antiquity, impossible to falsify.
Han Dynasty, dated 206 B.C-220 A.D.
Condition: Excellent, wear commensurate with age, an unusual example.
This fantastic piece is accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity.
Sculptural effigies of domesticated animals were often interred in the tombs of nobility and elite members of the social hierarchy. Models like this one were made to represent everything from simple goat or pig pens to the most elaborate towers and palaces. Because very few ancient Chinese buildings have survived intact, these models, along with descriptions from ancient texts, give a good representation of what the buildings might have looked like.
Burial figurines of graceful dancers, mystical beasts, and everyday objects reveal both how people in early China approached death and how they lived. Since people viewed the afterlife as an extension of worldly life, these figurines, called mingqi, sometimes referred as “spirit utensils” or “vessels of ghosts” disclose details of routine existence and provide insights into belief systems over a thousand-year period. For the first time in Chinese history, we have images of rural and daily life during the Han in the form of contemporary records...
