sun wall sculptur

Eufrosia Pantaleon crafts this charming wall sculpture by hand, choosing the fresh hues of springtime as her colour palette. Cheerful and bright, this ceramic wall art evokes the image of a shining April sun.

Ancient Maya craftspeople were masters at the delicate art of relief sculptures in stucco. Ruben and Gilda Perez utilize the material to create a beautiful mask with jade inlay. Faithfully reproducing an archaeological piece from Palenque, they depict the sun god, an image buried in the tomb of Pacal, or "Shield Jaguar." The king is interred beneath the Temple of the Inscriptions, and this jade mask is a one of the many offerings found there. The Guatemalan artisans present the mask on a brass and pinewood display stand, and it can also be displayed on the wall.

Alejandro de Esesarte depicts a bonsai tree with verdant foliage caressed by yellow sunlight. Transforming steel into art, he cuts out the image and meticulously paints it by hand to display on the wall.

Because each piece is individually hand-crafted and painted, size and color could vary slightly.
