Discover this captivating vintage Thai folk art painting by the artist Sukhya, a 1960s gem from the mid-century era. This original piece masterfully fuses traditional Thai cultural motifs with mid-century modern aesthetics, featuring a group of stylized owls rendered in warm earthy tones of orange, gold, and brown. The owls, symbolic in Thai folklore for wisdom, mystery, and spiritual guardianship, are depicted with large, expressive eyes and abstract forms that evoke a sense of ancient folklore blended with contemporary abstraction.
Crafted on a textured surface, the artwork showcases intricate depth through routed lines—each contour and grid-like background pattern is etched into the material, creating a tactile, three-dimensional quality that draws the viewer in. The composition includes a circular moon motif overhead, adding to the mystical atmosphere, while the overall palette and geometric shapes nod to mid-century modern influences, making it a perfect fit for eclectic or bohemian decor.
Presented with a matted finish and a minimalist walnut frame, this signed original is in excellent vintage condition with no major flaws—minor age-related patina enhances its authentic charm. Acquired from a prestigious estate, it's a rare example of Sukhya's native folk style, similar to his devotional works like Buddha figures and other cultural motifs.
Ideal for collectors of MCM art work, Asian folk art, owl enthusiasts, or those seeking a statement piece for home or office. Don't miss this opportunity to own this striking Mid Century Modern statement piece!
