Figurative ceramic sculpture with wood-ash glaze, textured high-temperature clay and a porcelain head topped by a rusula-like form. This unique piece belongs to Óscar Aldonza’s Extravagantes, a series that embraces eccentricity, humour and the expressive potential of material contrast. The body is built from coarse, high-fire clay whose granular surface is partially veiled by flowing wood-ash glaze, producing natural drips and tonal variations that emerge directly from kiln dynamics. The small porcelain head introduces a shift of scale and a lighter chromatic register, evoking the cap of a rusula mushroom and reinforcing the work’s gently surreal character. Aldonza’s practice relies on direct modelling, intuitive gesture and material experimentation, allowing each sculpture to retain the traces of its formation. In the Extravagantes, individuality and oddness become subjects of celebration, proposing a poetic reading of human peculiarity through humour, asymmetry and joyful strangeness.
