Bullish Star by Marc Caelenberghe, Bronze with Unusual Patina, Edition, 19cm high by 40cm wide by 20cm deep, Animals and Birds, Figurative sculpture.
A simplistic and minimalist bronze sculpture of a bull with an unusual patina.
Bullish Star is a compact yet striking bronze sculpture by Marc Caelenberghe, known for his elegant interpretations of animal forms. This piece portrays a stylized bull, rendered with clean lines and minimalist precision, capturing the essence of strength and presence without unnecessary detail.
The bull’s form is simplified to its most essential features, broad shoulders, lowered head, and a poised, grounded stance. Yet despite its abstraction, the work exudes energy, tension, and quiet determination.
What sets Bullish Star apart is its unusual patina. The bronze surface is treated with rich tonal variation, adding depth and character to the otherwise minimal form. The patina enhances the sense of movement and vitality, making the piece feel timeless and quietly powerful.
As part of a limited edition, Bullish Star reflects Caelenberghe’s ability to instil animal spirit into sculpture with both restraint and resonance. Though small in scale, it commands attention, inviting contemplation of strength, focus, and the beauty of form reduced to its core.
Born in Belgium, Marc Caelenberghe began stone carving when he was 40. He likes to carve in Belgian blue stone and Carrara marble. His statues are full of emotions and believes carving is like therapy.
