Stone and ceramic or glass Sculptures. Figures or abstract from stone, glass, cement, plaster, ceramic.
They can’t move or talk, but they exude special magnetism. If humanity
didn’t like little statuettes, people wouldn’t be buying plasticine
for their kids, or adorning their gardens and tombs with dwarves,
fairies, angels and all of the kind. If artists didn’t love
statuettes, we would never have seen David of Michelangelo, soaked
with love, or Venus de Milo, the symbol of femininity, beauty and
sensual perceptions.
Every statuette is a form born in the heart of the artist. The artist
has been thinking about it for a while, the way a parent expects a
child, or a faithful spouse expects her husband to return home. Then
they put their hands into the clay and create an original work of art or original paintings if they are painters.
Sculptors are often inspired by ancient Gods, legendary creatures, and
mythical heroes. They bring the myth to life.
Statues are dramatic, vibrant, daring and imaginative. They talk to
you in a thousand of silent ways. They look perfect and untouchable,
as if from a serene, fairy heaven. It’s like the Gods are really
living in them, waiting for humans to breathe life in their creations
from clay and marble. They pray to us, they entice, they whisper.
Statues are closely related to divinity. We look for holiness, we
explore, and we worship golden statues of Egyptian cats.
Some of the statuettes look so genuine, it’s like they are living.
There once lived a sculptor named Pygmalion, who made a sculpture of a
female form so beautiful, that he fell in love with it. He worshipped
Venus, the Goddess, and she gave life to his beloved statue. Her skin
was pale, her carriage was a little stiff, her eyes had a blank look,
but she had natural colors on her lips, eyes, hair and breasts. The
beauty of an original statue has not only the power to enthrall her
creator, but actually to bring stone to life.
