“In every community, there’s always someone who has an answer to every question.”
Rather than referring to a know-it-all busybody, Tendai’s sculpture celebrates the creative inventor or a person who thinks out of the box. The sweeping curve means the sculpture is shaped like someone pregnant, about to give birth to lots of ideas.
Tendai’s restrained use of line and form highlights the monochromatic beauty of the stone.
Amazingly, the grey veins that marble the stone like crackle glaze are entirely natural. Certainly, they are not cracks or lines of weakness: the stone is solid, strong and hard. Therefore, it is suitable for display indoors or outdoors.
TIP: use a spotlight to pick out the sculpture against a dark background to maximise visual impact.
For the geologists among you, the magnesite stone used for sculpting in Zimbabwe is a magnesium-based mineral in cryptocrystalline form.
