8 Lady Women of Africa Bowl

$479.00
Zulu & Xhosa

 

The Women of Africa range is a sculptural range where the headgear and costumes of local tribes are recorded in clay. This bowl has been handmade with four Zulu women figures and four Xhosa women figures holding hands in the spirit of Ubuntu. The stoneware bowl is thrown on a pottery wheel and then the hand-modelled figures are added to the rim of the bowl.

The various features depicting their tribe are added last. Once fired the bowl is painted in the glorious colours of Africa.  In Africa, the definition of an individual is community-based and not individualist.
