The Guardian of the Forest comes to you securely packaged in recycled cushioning material, measuring 21x12x10cm and weighing 550g.
This old, wrinkled forest spirit is a silent figure – formed from clay, fired in the traditional smoke firing process and deeply rooted on a piece of natural root wood.
With its mushroom-like appearance, it evokes the hidden aspects of the forest, myths, moss, and ancient wisdom. Its wrinkles and folds speak of time and silence – of observation, of nurturing, and of growth in secret.
The smoke from the burning wood gives the figure its dark markings, each one unique – traces of fire, the element that brings transformation. The root wood supports it as if it had always been there, as if it had grown naturally.
A being for people who feel connected to the silent forces of the forest.
Note: Due to the smoke firing process, color nuances and ash patterns vary – each sculpture is unique and carries the story of the fire within it.
I am happy to implement commissioned work or my own ideas for a specific piece of work, provided it is compatible with my way of working.
Feel free to contact me about this.
