Jesús Olivas Quintana

Twin Otter Bowl

$350.00

Twin Otter Bowl by Jesús Olivas Quintana captures playful motion in clay form. Two otters — one painted in deep red, the other in black — swirl in a mirrored dance at the heart of this rounded vessel, their curved bodies encircled by intricate geometric borders. The surrounding surface is packed with fine textures: tiny dotwork, jagged lines, and pattern bands that ripple outward in perfect symmetry.
The balanced color palette — warm terracotta, black, and natural beige — gives the piece a grounded elegance, while the expressive animal figures bring a joyful sense of life. It’s a small-format sculpture that feels complete and vibrant from every angle.
