Original artwork description:

JULIET is a lanky cat sculpture made from natural calabash wood, symbolising eternal love thwarted ... He is part of the CalbinoOz series.

Juliette is wearing a little petrol blue jumper with a turtleneck and dots in an aniseed mustard colour, and a sort of long dress made of natural calabash wood in the aniseed colour of the dots.

This long sculpture is fixed to a homemade wooden base, because a calabash emptied of its seeds, especially when it's long, becomes a hollow, light wood that could wobble without support.

Note: Juliet has a lover from the same series, Romeo...

Materials: empty natural calabash wood, surfine wood cellulose, vitrified plaster, acrylic paint and water-soluble oil, protective varnish.

Signed one-off pieces.

Dimensions: H 50 x W14 x D14 cm

Materials used:

calabash wood, surfine wood cellulose, blown glass, gourd wood, feather rachis
