Original artwork description:

This ceramic Power object [Boli 01], is inspired by the traditional African Boli is a profound homage to spiritual and cultural heritage. Through his interpretation, Lybaert captures the essence of the Boli as a vessel of energy and ritual significance. The piece's textured surface, organic form, and earthy tones evoke a sense of timelessness and primal connection, mirroring the sacred, layered aesthetic of the original Boli.

While deeply rooted in tradition, Lybaert’s approach reimagines the object with a contemporary sensibility, blending ancient symbolism with modern artistry. This fusion invites reflection on the universal themes of identity, spirituality, and cultural continuity. The result is a thought-provoking work that resonates with those who appreciate the intersection of heritage and innovation in art.
