Dodo I by Colin Kellam, Ceramic, Unique, 48cm high, 35cm wide, 30cm deep, Animals and Birds, Figurative, Nature sculpture
Realistic looking sculpture of a Dodo standing up on a dark rock.
Dodo I by Colin Kellam is a beautifully realized ceramic sculpture that brings the long-extinct bird vividly back to life. Standing proudly atop a dark, textured rock base, the dodo is rendered with remarkable realism and sensitivity, reflecting the artist’s deep appreciation for nature and craftsmanship.
Through masterful sculpting and careful surface detailing, Kellam captures the dodo’s distinctive form. From its rounded body and curved beak to the gentle slope of its wings and the solidity of its stance. The combination of smooth and textured surfaces gives the piece both tactile richness and visual depth. While the dark base provides a striking contrast that grounds the sculpture and enhances its lifelike presence.
At 48 cm in height, the work is both intimate and commanding. Its balanced proportions and fine ceramic finish make it suitable for display in both contemporary interiors and curated collections of wildlife or figurative art.
Kellam’s Dodo I serves not only as a tribute to a lost species but also as a reflection on fragility and endurance within nature. The sculpture invites viewers to pause, reflect, and reconnect with the natural world. A poignant reminder of beauty preserved through art.
