Carl Dahl
Cheval Blanc

2021

About the Item

"Cheval Blanc" is a captivating sculpture created by the renowned artist Carl Dahl. Crafted with precision and ingenuity, the sculpture depicts a majestic white horse, meticulously assembled from porcelain with interwoven iron filaments anchoring its various parts together. What sets Dahl apart is his unique ability to recreate sculptures that evoke the rigid expanse of Arizona's desert, his place of origin. The sculpture's distinctive feature lies in its representation of the Arizona desert's harshness, mirroring the arid landscape's unforgiving nature. The fractures within the sculpture serve as poignant reminders of the dryness and aridity of the desert, each crack telling a story of the relentless forces of nature. The incorporation of iron filaments, with their rusted hues, further emphasizes the sculpture's connection to the arid environment. Dahl's masterful touch extends beyond mere representation; it transcends into a symbolic narrative of the desert's essence. The white horse, poised in perfect symmetry, becomes a symbol of resilience amid adversity, embodying the endurance required to navigate the challenging terrain of the artist's homeland.

Signed by hand COA provided Ref.: 924802-1809 *Made to Order Every piece is unique, design might differ slightly Customization possible **Lead time approx. 2 weeks for qty 1-3 495 780 Her work references exclusive and precious porcelain wares from 18th-century Europe. In her work she tries to capture the qualities for which porcelain has been known since its discovery in China: whiteness, translucency, and resonance. She is attracted to the enameled and lustered surfaces of the Baroque, Renaissance and Rococo porcelain designs, as well as to elaborations on structural elements of these time periods. She is investigating surface decorations and embellished shapes in order to gain more knowledge for my own studio practice. Sherman is interested in incorporating and referencing historic drawings, motives, and patterns into her work. Studying the history of ceramics Sherman has been captivated by the relationship between East and West, and how they continue to influence each other, especially through the ceramic arts. Although there might be considerable differences between the two civilizations, the cultural exchange between them is an important connector of history and has produced a long and rich exchange of ideas between artists and makers. Asian craft traditions have been handed down to the West and the handmade aspect, even within the factory setting, is still an important concept that allows for control of design and quality by the artist, which is essential within craft of the West.
