Rosa Olivares, Chef, ceramic sculpture with fabric, h 24 cm

Ceramic sculpture created by artist Rosa Olivares. The work represents a heart in the guise of a chef.

Hearts are distinctive elements of Rosa's art. They are very recurrent in her works as they are the symbol of her heart that risked stopping beating and which she uses as a message of positivity and optimism.

In a context, such as the current one, in which uncertainty and fear are in the air, her works are meant to be a sign of hope. It is a unique small work; it has great three-dimensionality in its volumes.

The heart-shaped chef is in degreasing white, with a happy expression, the trim is black, he holds a wooden ladle in his hand, below him, a red pepperoni. The work is completely hand-enamelled.
