. This life-sized totemic ceramic conjures both plant and animal forms. Assembled in five parts, the work is constructed from refractory clay and features a dynamic composition that appears to twist, turn, and fold in on itself. Thousands of tiny, spiked protrusions covering the work’s surface lend it a further amorphic quality. After the work was fired in a kiln to give an even surface, acrylic paint was applied. This monochromatic finish allows light and shadow to further emphasize the work’s highly textured surface.. Andrés Anza
