glazed ceramicFrançois Ghebaly
Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

The ceramic mug features a vibrant, textured surface with a variety of colors, shapes, and objects embedded within it. The prominent focal point is a small, orange deer figurine standing atop a rocky outcrop. Surrounding the deer are other sculptural elements, including colorful flowers, leaves, and irregular, abstract forms. The overall composition gives the impression of a whimsical, nature-inspired scene. The artwork's distinctive ceramic glaze and the varied techniques used, such as the addition of three-dimensional objects, suggest an experimental and imaginative artistic approach. This eclectic, mixed-media piece likely reflects the artist's intention to create a visually engaging and tactile object that invites the viewer to discover new details upon each examination. ...

Artist
Sharif Farrag
B.1993, American

Sharif Farrag work is made up of richly detailed porcelain, stoneware and drawings. His work wells up from depths of personal experience: his hybrid forms speak to the second generation American experience, a prismatic refraction of his Syrian-Egyptian parentage, his San Fernando Valley upbringing, skater culture and graffiti, Syrian textiles and bakhoor. Certain figures recur as alter egos, giving form and outlet to his angels and demons. Farrag consistently pushes the expressive potential of clay with painterly glazing and intricately interpenetrating forms. ...
