About this Item
South African 1948-
The Last Supper
2020
stoneware heightened with oxides and underglaze shades of brown
tallest height: 22,3cm
Notes
"The Last Supper sculptural installation of 13 ceramic animals takes an environmental stance through a Christian religious ideology: as Christ died on the cross for the sins of Man, so the animal kingdom on earth is dying for the sins of mankind. Will this Anthropocene Era be their 'Last Supper'? (and ours?)"
Ann Marais, Cape Town, 2020
