This contemporary artwork features a striking visual composition. The predominant colors are deep blues and purples, creating a dramatic, celestial backdrop.

The overall style and technique suggest a surrealistic, dreamlike sensibility, inviting the viewer to ponder the symbolic meaning behind this enigmatic celestial being. The artist's intention may allude to themes of the human spirit's journey or our connection to the greater cosmic forces. ...
Taking inspiration from both Figurative and Modernist Sculpture, Charlotte Dualé creates beguiling ceramic pieces which are all at once familiar and indistinguishable. Adopting a collage-like approach to sculpture, Dualé brings varying materials such as latex, porcelain and metal together with her ceramic forms, applying glazes and highly pigmented paints to bind these elements. Concerned with the unpredictability of memory and language, recognisable forms are warped and reborn by Dualé, mimicking hazily recollected moments or sentences misshaped by translation. Feminist Art is also a key influence on Dualé's practice, clearly seen in her Impuzzibil (Impossible) series, where the female form is fragmented and scattered throughout the collection.
