Catawiki’s goal is to make special objects universally available. Our weekly auctions feature thousands of unusual, rare, and exceptional objects you won’t find in just any store. This new sculpture of Venus is very beautiful and can be easily hung on the wall thanks to the hook on the back; with a contemporary character, it is at ease in both modern and classic environments and can also be placed outdoors thanks to the quality of the materials used.
This work, the result of the 4-handed synergy, is part of the "The new era of matriarchy" "Matrilinear" collection, the golden vulva with gold leaf set in the center of the hair, the scratched line in the paint and gold leaf, symbols chosen by authors for all women who have bigger dreams than the opportunities that life offers them. Made according to the traditional technique from the clay model to the mould, it is not 3D printed with a machine and for this reason, in addition to the artistic value, there is a processing cost which does not allow accepting offers lower than the reserve price.
It is carefully shipped by express courier, wrapped in wood shavings to reduce the polluting percentage of packaging.
The authentication that accompanies the work is autographed by the authors.
