The egg-shaped body consists of several hundred individually cut and shingle-like applied sheet metal feathers, spiraling around the bird from a central feather rosette on its back. The beak is made of brass, the eyes feature a brass iris ring with a black pupil, and the thinly drawn claw feet are constructed from finely braided wire. The craftsmanship – hand-cut feather plates, brass iris, wire claws – is the signature work of Mexican sculptor Sergio Bustamante (b. 1949), whose owls from his Jalisco studio are now internationally among the most sought-after examples of brutalist animal sculpture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"my-2 [\u0026amp;+p]:mt-4 [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:inline-block [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:align-top\"\u003eWith dimensions of H 13.5 × W 10 × D 11 cm, the owl is small enough to fit comfortably in the hand and works as a solitaire on a bookshelf, on a desk next to leather-bound books, in a display cabinet, or as an eye-catcher on a sideboard. The patina is old and naturally developed, with warm bronze and silver nuances that reflect decades of artisanal care. The condition is very good for its aged craftsmanship, with no loose feathers and all connections secure.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sergio Bustamante","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53751365828955,"sku":null,"price":450.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0814\/7641\/9931\/files\/IMG_9564.png?v=1786428631","url":"https:\/\/artfillsspace.com\/en\/products\/sergio-bustamante-brutalist-metall-eule-blechfedern-1970er","provider":"ArtFillsSpace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
