Title - GRIFFIN & SHELLFrom Egypt to Crete, the griffin has been a symbol of majesty, loyalty and divine protection. On this vase it is painted in vivid colours resembling Minoan frescoes. The mythical creature guards the naked summers treasure, a blue pearl shell. By applying sea water onto the bisque surfaces, the artist invites the unpredictable textures of salt to mark each piece, transforming the surface into a record of both artistic intent and organic reaction.This vase belongs to a limited series of just 10 hand-painted larger ceramic vases, each signed and numbered by the artist.
