This abstract cream wall sculpture of a reclining female form is handmade from stoneware. Within the main body are various hollows in asymmetrical shapes, allowing you to see through the piece. In three of the hollows, 24 karat gold lustre fragments are suspended in the air, held with gold lacquered copper wire.
Created by Miyelle at her studio in Hackney, London, this unique piece is part of her latest ceramic collection “Evolving Femininity” which explores, honours and challenges notions of womanhood. The pieces in the collection reflect biological themes such as the cyclical transformation of our menstrual cycle, aging and fertility. While also focussing on the emotional and lifestyle changes we navigate as our lives progress.
The piece is made from textured stoneware and the body is unglazed so you can admire the light cream colour of the clay. The golden fragments are glazed with a satin glaze and painted with 24 karat gold lustre with some visible brush strokes. There is a softness and imperfection attributed to the handmade nature of the piece with visible textural markings from the clay and making process. The reverse of the piece features two 7mm holes to fit screws for hanging the piece on a wall. The piece weighs 1.5kg.
