Description:
This ceramic artwork by Marwan Ahmad Tawaha, a Jordanian artist, presents a contemporary sculptural composition that blends abstract form with expressive, calligraphic-inspired elements. The piece is constructed on a circular base with a heavily textured, organic edge, finished in soft bluish tones with subtle reddish-brown linear accents that highlight its contours and handcrafted structure. Emerging from the surface are dynamic vertical and geometric forms, including angular triangular shapes and curved numeral-like or symbolic elements that evoke fragments of language and memory. The glossy glaze and layered surface treatment enhance depth and movement, creating a fluid yet structured visual rhythm. Overall, the work reflects a fusion of material experimentation and conceptual abstraction, exploring themes of identity, symbolism, and contemporary ceramic practice.
