The Desire to be in Control #12 (2024) Original Clay Sculpture by Natasha Kanevski

53.34 x 53.34 x 11.43cm (unframed) / 53.34 x 53.34cm (actual image size)

£2,248.64

This blue abstract sculpture, " The Desire to be in Control #23," is made on a 20"x 20"x 1.5" canvas.
The paint I used in this sculpture is a unique, rich, and distinctive blue, totally flat and ultra-matte. Every sculptured element was hand-sculptured and hand-painted separately before being attached to the canvas.

The series explores the paradox of human control—our constant attempt to direct our lives, each other, and even our inner worlds, despite knowing how limited that control truly is. The sculptural forms reflect this tension: reaching, grasping, resisting, or pulling back. Each piece hints at the invisible forces that shape us—our histories, beliefs, bodies, and circumstances—revealing how much we try to command and how much ultimately lies beyond our reach.

The series becomes a visual study of vulnerability, boundaries, and the deep, universal longing to feel steadiness in a world that rarely allows it.

Easy cleaning with a feather duster.

I am an award-winning artist. I create meta-modernistic sculptures on canvas.
I have had works appear in and win awards at juried art shows across the US and Europe, and I have been shown by selected galleries, including Solo and Duo Exhibits.

Materials used:

Clay, paint
