Anthropozoomorphic Sculpture

Anthropozoomorphic Sculpture

Sculpture made in volcanic basaltic rock, carved in high and low relief. It presents human features with folded arms and closed hands, characteristic of Upper Magdalena statuary. Dimensions: 143 × 205 × 67 cm.

This sculpture combines human and animal features (anthropozoomorphic), featuring prominent large fangs. The low-relief carving technique creates depth to highlight elements such as the nose, arms, and headdress. It is one of the 6 pieces officially registered with ICANH through Resolution 1457 of 2023.
