About the Item
Coral II is a sculpture by Czech artist Pavlína Kvita. This sculpture features an artificial stone figure that, according to the title, may suggest a coral. It is mounted on a steel plinth.
This artificial stone sculpture is presented on a steel plinth. Weight of the sculpture: 4 kg. Weight of the plinth: 15 kg.
Dimensions (with the plinth): 155 × 55 × 35 cm (61 × 21.6 × 13.7 in).
Dimensions (without the plinth): 36 × 47 × 9 cm (14.1 × 18.5 × 3.5 in).
For this series, Pavlína Kvita draws upon the symbolism of red earth—a material long associated with ancient creation myths, with life, death, and humanity’s earliest rituals. Once used in ceremonies and burials, red pigment carried connotations of protection, vitality, and a sacred connection to land and ancestry. Kvita’s sculptures, inspired by this elemental material yet crafted in artificial stone, evoke ritual artifacts, hybrid beings, and totemic protectors. Set atop carefully conceived geometric pedestals, they blur the line between sculpture and design, between material and metaphor.
The sculptures of Czech artist Pavlína Kvita emerge from an exploration of her inner world, giving rise to enigmatic figures whose forms feel both archaic and futuristic. These anthropomorphic or zoomorphic presences—silent, timeless, and uncanny—assert themselves with a striking balance of strength and poise. Their dynamic, streamlined contours often verge on abstraction. Kvita’s works are the culmination of a cyclical process of creation, transformation, and destruction, in which she engages deeply with the material, testing and reshaping the endless possibilities of form.

Pavlína Kvita
The sculptures of the Czech artist Pavlína Kvita come to life from the exploration of her inner world, resulting in the creation of mysterious figures with forms that are both archaic and futuristic. These anthropomorphic or zoomorphic creatures, silent presences outside of time, impose themselves in space with a blend of strength and balance, conferred on them by their dynamic, streamlined lines, tending towards abstraction. Pavlína Kvita’s sculptures are the end result of a circular process of creation/transformation/destruction which the artist establishes with the material, manipulating shapes and their infinite possibilities. “I really need to feel the work in my hands, to find it by breaking it down and destroying it, and then rebuilding it again. For me it is a process of destruction and creation, just like the process we see at work in life.”
