Spirit Of An Elephant
Ishmael Chitiyo

Springstone

46cm (h)
24cm (w)
16cm (d)

9kg

SOLD

The swooping curve (top left) is an elephant's trunk, lifted up to trumpet; the circle is the elephant's eye.

Ishmael is one of our top young artists. His work is wonderfully abstract and uses a clever combination of angles and curves, shiny black surfaces contrasting against matt white.

This is a very sophisticated and confident work and is absolutely superb value.
