A duo of Ukrainian craftsmen creates whimsically painted ceramic figurines that look like cute fantastic creatures. Each of the sculptures has its own unique colorful design.
Ukrainians Anya Stasenko and Slava Leontiev are engaged in the creation of cute porcelain figurines. It is noteworthy that both masters do not have any special ceramic or sculptural education. One of them is a painting teacher and the other is a graphic artist. According to the authors themselves, they chose ceramics for practical and economic reasons. Unlike glass and metal, this material is easy to work with. And the figurines made by Anya and Slava are in great demand among buyers.
The size of the sculptures varies from 4 to 40 centimeters. The volumes of the kilns do not allow making larger figures. But the authors argue that they will soon acquire a larger oven. For example, to create small frogs, Anya and Slava take only a day, and a sculpture of a large turtle can sometimes take a whole month.
The work of these authors is unique. Of course, many people work with ceramics, but there are no analogues to sculptures painted in this technique.
The Hong Kong-based sculptor Johnson Cheung-shing Tsang also specializes in ceramics. A porcelain sculpture called "Vessel of Pain" he dedicated to his home country.
