About the Item

Contemporary Head Bust of Indian Lapis Lazuli, Silvered Metal Granite Mexico, ca. 1980s DIMENSIONS Height: 13.75 inches Width: 4.5 inches Depth: 4.25 inches ABOUT This remarkable sculpture of an Indian head is a striking fusion of tradition and modernity, masterfully crafted from an array of unusual materials that give it a unique, textured presence. The piece blends a powerful, typically ancient Mexican national image—a symbol of deep cultural heritage—with the sleek, pared-back lines of contemporary design. The sculptor’s meticulous attention to detail brings the face to life, infusing it with a sense of timeless wisdom, while the minimalist form and choice of materials suggest a forward-thinking approach to artistry. The use of unconventional materials adds layers of depth and complexity to the work, elevating the iconic imagery of the Native figure into a sophisticated, modern aesthetic. This fusion of ancient symbolism and modern design principles creates a striking visual dialogue between past and present, celebrating both cultural heritage and the elegance of contemporary art. The sculpture stands not only as a tribute to Mexican indigenous heritage but also as an example of how traditional motifs can be reinterpreted through the lens of modern design, resulting in a piece that feels both timeless and entirely of its moment.
