Metallic Silver-Gray Ceramic Sculpture, Angled Head with 2 Middle Bars on 4 Legs
About the Item
This Metallic Silver-Gray hand-built ceramic sculpture evokes a proud creature that walks and observes. A Modern TOTEM, abstract with an angled head on two middle bars, balanced on 4 legs. High fired in a gas kiln, the metallic glaze is made from an obsolete clay body and will likely never be made again. It is painted over and rubbed into the mottled texture before firing. Red iron from the clay body shows through the mottled surface. Truly one of a kind.
Signature chop underneath.
From the Artist's private collection.

Helena Starcevic Ceramics
Helena Starcevic Ceramics produces work that straddles the line between fine and decorative art. Each piece is one of a kind, hand-built entirely by the artist in her New York studio. Taking inspiration from the natural world, Ms. Starcevic's work includes references to the stark beauty of the desert, prehistoric cave paintings, and the human form (within and without). Everything is filtered through Ms. Starcevic’s own singular aesthetic, at once quiet yet strong, meditative, and beautiful. Pieces are made in different clays and finishes, and at different scales. Groupings are available. Helena Starcevic’s ceramic pieces are held in private collections across the US and Europe. She has held numerous residencies including one at the Museum of Art and Design in New York City.

- Gray/Green Ceramic Pod Composite SculptureBy Helena Starcevic CeramicsLocated in New York, NYHand built Ceramic Sculpture, in Gray/Green Underglaze. The Gray/Green is hard to capture: more dark gray than green, it has the feeling of the color sage green. The piece is a composite of hollow pods, elongated, pointed oval or elliptical shapes. They are individually hand-formed, attached together and fused during the firing. White stoneware clay with gray/green underglazes create a soft, powdery surface that still shows a bit of texture from the clay. It is not glazed. The Composite Series has an earthy presence, inspired by the huge bare boulders of the Anza Borrego...Category
