The artist
Silvia Steiger
In her atelier in Pöttsching, Austria, Silvia Steiger gives the goddesses of prehistoric and ancient Europe a body in clay. Her sculptures grow from a fascination with mythology and the many forms of the feminine.
Each monumental goddess is built by hand in three parts, painted and fired two or three times. Months of work go into a single piece. No moulds, no editions: every sculpture is one of a kind.
