YAYA/Vase

Florero Vase HANDMADE IN USA This intriguing, figurative YaYa Sali Vase by Leena Similu is primitive, modern, and nothing less than mesmerizing. Leena's remarkable sculpture work hits the mark – she wanted to express her West African heritage through her art, and she has done that and more. A combination of primitive and modern with just a touch of the bizarre, a Yaya Situation piece is the perfect anchor art for any room. Her LA studio, Yaya Situation, is named in tribute to her grandmother, again a nod to her Cameroonian roots. And although she came from a fashion design background, her metamorphosis into sculptor extraordinaire is not surprising.  Her sculptures speak to many things. Matriarchy. Fertility. Power. But most of all, they speak to us. Details MEASUREMENTS: 17 W x 30.5 cm H / 8 x 12" MATERIALS: 100% clay COLOURS: Black ORIGIN: Los Angeles Care Dust exterior with a dry cloth.
