Original Description
Paul Gauguin’s Oviri (m.k.j. 35) (1894) is a haunting ceramic sculpture that embodies the artist’s fascination with Tahitian mythology and his rejection of Western conventions. The work depicts a mysterious, androgynous figure cradling a wolf-like creature—an allegory of life, death, and primal forces—set against Gauguin’s signature blend of Symbolism and Primitivism. Created during his troubled years in Tahiti, the piece reflects his longing for an unspoiled, exotic utopia while also revealing his inner turmoil. Dark-glazed and rough-textured, Oviri exudes an eerie, almost totemic presence, embodying the "savage" aesthetic Gauguin championed. Today, it holds a pivotal place in art history as a precursor to modernist primitivism and a bold rejection of academic tradition, showcasing Gauguin’s influence on movements like Expressionism and Surrealism.
For a home or office, Oviri’s enigmatic presence demands a deliberate setting. Place it in a study or reading nook as a bold statement piece, ideally against a muted backdrop (deep greens or warm terracotta) to amplify its raw, earthen tones. A mid-century modern or minimalist space would balance its primal energy, while a bohemian interior could embrace its mystical vibe. Opt for a pedestal or console table to elevate its compact size (49.5 × 34.5 cm), ensuring it commands attention. Pair with organic textures—woven rugs, wooden furniture—or contrast with industrial metals for drama. Soft, indirect lighting will deepen its shadows, enhancing its mystical aura without overwhelming the room.
