REPRESENTATION

Harappa : Out of Indus valley civilization

Harappa : Out of Indus valley civilization

  • 2014
  • clay (ceramic)
  • To give it a rustic feel a single glaze which will break in places was used… Fired in a gas kiln at 1200 degrees centigrade…
  • 7.5 x 18 x 11.5 cm

  • Pictures of metal statues found in Indus valley extraction…. There was a typical style of making human figures… all conical & the proportion was out of sync. So when I sculpted this mother & child, it was very prominent in my subconscious.
