Sculptures for Interior Designers!



There is something about the use of floor sculptures in design that speaks of modern sensibilities and excellent taste. Floor sculptures in a home definitely make a terrific fashion statement. A floor sculpture does not only add a high level of style, it also functions as a strong focal point, a commanding presence that can easily influence not only your attention, but also the tone and decorating inspiration for the whole room.
Floor sculptures come in all shapes, colors, materials and sizes. Often beautiful and interesting, these artistic pieces were all the rage in the late 19th century and, clearly  continue to be popular to date. The Impressionists started the ball rolling and now modern floor sculptures continue to offer visual fascination in a room. The ’60s and ’70s produced some really evocative modern pieces, which continue to be in demand today.

Nowadays, contemporary African-style floor sculptures depict all the relevant elements in our lifetime. The styles represented cover a rather wide range and the media keep on getting more innovative as the years go by. Many of these floor sculptures are abstract in form, but they clearly speak to the psyche so that you can easily tell if they are supposed to be dramatic, playful, whimsical, etc.
Make no mistake about it; these floor sculptures are actual works of art. Whether built by celebrated artists, unknown artisans, or mass-produced by commercial enterprises, they, as a rule, effectively create a form of visual interest, very often captivating and moving.

Zimbabwean Artists

There are quite a few art projects that fund different parts of Africa. Not only do these projects generate income for undiscovered artists, but they also allow us westerners to be introduced to new art and artists that we would otherwise be unaware of.






The country that Meyave focuses on most is Zimbabwe. Zimbabwean art is very unique in that it can be examined through time, by area, by main tribal division and as indicative of recent historic and political changes. Art in Zimbabwe lost most of its spiritual power with the conversion of the majority of the population to Christianity in the 19th and 20th centuries and has only in the last 20 years been productive outside of this spectrum. Noted Zimbabwean artists include sculptor Patrick Mavros, and painters Kim DonaldsonLarry NortonBrennan SewardKefas GimoEric Forlee and Owen Maseko.


With 15 years of experience in selling stone sculpture we feature only the best artists. Please visit our website to see some of Zimbabwe's greatest artists:  www.Meyave.com
