Glazed ceramic owl – Totem sculpture

Ceramics represent a stylised figure of an owl, with a calm and meditative presence. The frontal eyes, half-closed, suggest silent vigilance and wisdom, while the compact and vertical shape evokes a protective totem. Between animal and symbol. More than a naturalistic representation, the work offers a free interpretation of the owl. The simplification of forms and the absence of descriptive details open up a symbolic space, where the animal becomes a figure of watchfulness, almost human. Material and surface. The crackled white glaze is interspersed with shades of water green and dark marks from the firing process. These variations give the surface an organic and lively character, enhancing the expressive dimension of the piece.
