Beata (2021) Heykel Elena Uljancic tarafından

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

Beata is a medieval type of figure, a face we could find in paintings from the "Dark Ages". We never know who's behind that face - she might be a seer, or just a face in the crowd in one of those medieval towns.
I prefer to see her as the force of good. Her expression is rather somber, but behind it there are still traces of untouched humanity.

This is my version of the story at least. What I would really love though is that those 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 instead simply enjoy them as they are.

Just a short final note: this particular technique – ceramics - is completely unpredictable. So due to its nature, and the way the items are made, one can never tell the final result with certainty. You couldn’t, even if you wanted 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.
