Original artwork description:

"Metamorfosis" – A Unique Expression of Transformation

This original ceramic artwork, titled Metamorfosis, is an exquisite representation of change and evolution. Crafted using the ancient Japanese Raku technique, it embodies the harmony of the four natural elements—earth, fire, water, and air.

Each piece in this mural undergoes an intricate and unpredictable process. The ceramic is fired at high temperatures and removed while still glowing, then placed into a bed of combustible materials like wood shavings. This interaction creates a captivating alchemy where smoke penetrates the surface, transforming its textures and colors. The result? Iridescent hues, metallic tones, and organic crackles, making each segment of Metamorfosis absolutely one of a kind.

The flowing forms and dynamic patterns within the piece symbolize transformation, fluidity, and the interconnectedness of all life. Metamorfosis not only captures the beauty of natural processes but also invites viewers to reflect on their own journeys of growth and renewal.

Perfect for collectors and art lovers who appreciate timeless craftsmanship and the magic of Raku, this mural will add depth, character, and a profound story to any space.
