Adonis Torso, by Mark Mann, cast and hand-carved ceramic individually glazed, approx. 28 x 18.5 x 12 cm, £550
Mark Mann is a familiar name at the gallery, from his solo exhibition that transformed the space into an art-filled garden, to his guest curation of our most recent exhibition, Duality. Drawing inspiration from nature, Greek and Roman mythology, and Queer histories, Mann creates beautifully crafted works across ceramics, bronze, painting and textiles.
His Adonis torso first appeared in our gallery in our exhibition Generation Gray alongside a selection of his wall-mounted fragments. Adonis was most notable in Greek mythology for having extraordinary beauty and has become a symbol of the most handsome mortal, a divine physique that Mann replicates into his artwork rich with carved details. We’re delighted to now introduce two new torsos!
The first is finished in a rich, mottled bronze glaze, with a wonderfully expressive drip of glaze falling from the end of the broken arm, a small detail that makes the piece feel entirely captivating
The second features the distinctive green glaze, iconic of Mark’s works, but with a striking constellation of spots where the glaze breaks away to reveal the raw clay beneath. This interplay between glaze and exposed ceramic heightens the dynamism of the surface.
