Marine Textures Objet d'Art 26

Angebot$2,526.00 USD

Beschreibung

In this objet d’art, Alyne Ohigashi draws inspiration from marine life, biology, and her own imagination to create a fantastical porcelain sculpture. Inspired by live coral, this piece also recalls the forms of sea anemones or even the petals of a flower.

Every element of the texture is individually crafted and applied by hand, giving this piece a naturally organic rhythm. Wonderfully tactile, it offers new ways of experiencing form and color. With a silky-smooth, glossy finish that contrasts with the deep angles of the texture, the piece creates an interplay of light and shadow that invites viewing in all kinds of light.

Exploring new possibilities in Tobe ware, Ohigashi remains true to the materials of the craft while adding her own innovations. Each of her pieces is sculpted out of Tobe porcelain—a challenge to work with for such detailed works. Drawing on marine and botanical shapes and hues familiar to her from a childhood spent in the Philippines, Ohigashi skillfully unifies her two homelands. The final result feels both nostalgic and new, familiar and strange, an intriguing ambiguity that encourages the viewer to create their own meaning.

Just like a real living creature, this piece encourages an emotional bond with its caretaker. Each element reflects both the symmetry and variation of the natural world. Not only beautiful but a delight to touch, this work brings a refreshing yet grounded presence to a foyer, centerpiece, or desk, inviting in turns lively conversation and quiet reflection. It is a playful symphony of imagination, a rhythmic ode to nature.

About Artist

Alyne Ohigashi

Ohigashi Alyne arbeitet mit dem traditionsreichen Handwerk der Tobe-Porzellanherstellung und verleiht diesem jahrhundertealten Medium ihre einzigartige Stimme. Indem sie traditionelle Techniken mit ihren eigenen, unverwechselbaren Designs und Glasurstilen kombiniert, verwandelt sie die makellos weißen Oberflächen des Tobe-Porzellans in Leinwände für ihre leuchtenden Farben und Texturen.

Ohigashi verfügt über einen Hintergrund in der Agrarforschung und ist ein Meister der botanischen und natürlichen Motive und Formen. Durch die Kombination aus Intuition und tiefem Verständnis für Technik und Materialien fertigt sie Keramikskulpturen und Kunstobjekte, die den Horizont und die Möglichkeiten von Tobe-Ware als Medium erweitern.
