Moluccas Islands maternity figure |
This object was in the exhibition: "Native Arts of the World...At Home in Colorado - The Douglas Society Collects" |
Indonesian maternity statue 10.5" Moluccas Islands chain in E. Indonesia Ex Christian Silvian collection, France This object, a maternity figure holding twins, is just amazing in my opinion. I love the very simple and abstract form of the figure, almost a cubist type of figure, and I love the form of the face. I love symmetrical things, and this figure is very symmetrical and that is probably what initially drew me to it, I also love the fact that it is a maternity figure. |
