Ceramic sculpture, painted with acrylics and sealed with varnish. Sculpture comes without pedestal. Size: 11 cm high, 8 cm wide and 9 cm deep. Boy With Asymmetrical Ears is a limmited edition sculpture. The sculpture is cast with slip (liquid clay) into a mould. Once it is released from the mold it dries for a couple of days and small corrections are made. Then it is stacked in a ceramics oven which is fired to 980 degrees celsius. This batch of five is painted with acrylics. Note #1: These sculptures are made and painted by hand. And even though it is a series, this means that every sculpture is different and unique. They resemble the one presented here, but are all different. Keep this in mind if you consider buying one. Note #2: This ceramic sculpture is for indoor use only. Outside it will probably crack from low temperatures, bleach in the sun or get stolen by jealous neighbours.

Netherlands
Jan-Hein Arens (Vught, the Netherlands, born September 23, 1974) is a Dutch painter, sculptor and illustrator. He attended the Grafische School Eindhoven from 1992-1996, where he was educated in Graphic Design and illustration. Arens is heavily influenced by COBRA (a European art movement active around 1950), Pop Art and the drawings of his young children. The work of Arens concentrates on basic human needs and emotions, and by adding different, often strange elements, or placing them out of context the spectator is forced to make up his/her own reason or meaning for the work. Humor and alienation are also common elements in Arens' work. Technique Arens' paintings and cast concrete sculptures are usually built up from layers. Often realistic drawings of body parts, such as eyes or mouths, are superimposed onto a base layer of geometric figures. The work is then augmented with thick black lines, text, and paint thrown directly onto the canvas. Arens' work is notable for combining realistic casual elements with action painting and thick black, drawing like lines. In this way, Pop Art and COBRA are mixed together to create a hierarchy of importance. Elements that are not important at all can even be replaced by plain text. In the Netherlands, Arens is referred to as an artist who still works in the spirit of COBRA. Arens had shows in galleries in the Netherlands, India, Canada and France.
