Euphemia (2021) 彫刻 Elena Uljancic によって

A unique handmade artwork ceramic figurine, "Euphemia" belongs to the series of small, original sculptures with fully-formed facial expressions. This series I've entitled "My Inner Lodgers". For each of my figurines there is a background story of sorts.

So, let's take this figure you're (hopefully) looking at, for a moment. This is "Euphemia", a Viennese artist. She was a sculptor, an excellent one. But beside her work she spent a lifetime fighting for her art, during the historicalperiod when most of the artists were men. Women like her made it possible for me to become the artist I'd always wanted to be.

This is my version of the story at least. What I would really love though is that those of you who might like or buy my sculptures, would come up with a story of your own. You can even change the name of these figures, if you want to. Or not, and simply enjoy them as they are.


Just a short final note: this particular technique – ceramics - is completely unpredictable. So due to its nature, one can never tell the final result with certainty. In other words, you can’t, even if you'd want to, get two exactly same figures. Each one is totally unique.

So, if you feel you have someone unique in your life, someone who you think deserves a unique gift, this is your place.
That special someone might be you.
