This striking Mid-Century Modern heron sculpture is a quintessential example of Coastal Brutalist design. Attributed to the artist Bora, this piece masterfully blends industrial grit with organic warmth. The bird's body is intricately constructed from overlapping, hand-selected driftwood slices (often referred to in collector circles as tagua nut or organic wood disks), creating a rich, rhythmic texture that mimics feathers. ​The sculpture stands on tall, slender legs and splayed feet crafted from welded architectural rebar, providing a sturdy base and a raw, sculptural contrast to the natural wood body. The head and neck feature a smooth, burnished finish that complements the weathered texture of the rebar. ​Whether placed in a minimalist urban loft or a beachside retreat, this "Organic Modern" statement piece brings a sophisticated, curated feel to any space. It is a perfect addition for collectors of MCM folk art or those looking to add a vertical, sculptural element to a console table or hearth. ​Details ​Creator: Attributed to Bora ​Style: Mid-Century Modern / Brutalist / Coastal ​Period: Circa 1960s–1970s ​Materials: Rebar, Driftwood, Resin/Wood Composite ​Condition: Excellent vintage condition.
