Signed Ross Parkinson Hand-Carved Soapstone Bear Sculpture, c.1980s
$0.00 AUD
A powerful and minimalist hand-carved soapstone bear sculpture by Canadian artist Ross Parkinson.
Handmade in Quebec, this piece is a sophisticated example of modern art inspired by the celebrated forms of Canadian Inuit sculpture. Parkinson has expertly captured the essential spirit and solid, grounded form of the bear with a minimalist, clean-lined approach.
The sculpture is carved from a single piece of dark, richly mottled soapstone, which has been polished to a smooth, tactile finish that beautifully highlights the stone's natural grey and black variations. This is a substantial and tactile object that feels wonderful in the hand.
Signed by the artist on the underside, this piece is a perfect addition to a curated desk, bookshelf, or collection of studio art.
