Lot 194: Ceramic Tile, After Ting Shao Kuang "Motherhood"

Description

3D raised-relief ceramic tile interpretation of Ting Shao Kuang's "Motherhood," featuring the artist's signature stylized figures rendered in raised cuerda seca-style outlines filled with rich blue, orange, black, and cream glazes, depicting a mother tenderly embracing her child. The figures are set against a textured olive-green ground patterned with stylized decorative motifs echoing Ting's distinctive blend of traditional Chinese artistic sensibility with modern graphic design. Ting Shao Kuang is a Chinese-American artist known for his elegant, elongated figures and richly patterned compositions exploring themes of family and womanhood, and his imagery remains widely sought after by collectors of contemporary decorative art. The tile's dimensional raised outline technique and jewel-toned palette make it a striking wall-hung decorative piece. No maker's mark is visible on the felt-backed reverse. Measures approximately 12" H x 12" W.

Condition:

Good condition overall. Glaze is glossy and intact with expected small pitting/specking from the firing process. Both bottom corners have chips and the right side has a repair (see photos). Please review photos closely; we do our best to catch all flaws but small imperfections can be missed.
