Description
A hand-built stoneware abstract sculpture featuring a dynamic, undulating form composed of overlapping slabs. The piece exhibits a varied surface treatment with smooth, unglazed cream-coloured areas contrasted by sections finished in a rust-toned slip. The sculpture is heavily decorated with rhythmic, deeply incised linear patterns and cross-hatched textures that follow the contours of the folds. The reverse side shows similar construction with sweeping diagonal bands of textured orange-brown slip against the pale clay body. The form is self-supporting on an integral base. There are no legible signatures or maker’s marks visible.
Height: 25 cm
Width: 24 cm.
Condition report:
The sculpture shows several minor condition issues including a small chip to the upper pointed edge (photo 1) and a similar minor chip to the opposite upper rim (photo 2). There are scattered dark scuffs and surface marks on the cream clay body, notably near the base and on the upper smooth sections (photo 1). The deeply incised textures are original to the design.
