Shirley Villavicencio Pizango's expressionistic paintings enliven a series of vases for Serax. Colorful vessels in imaginative forms traverse fine art and ceramics. In 'Santiago de Borja', folk-style paintings reflect aspects of life and nature in the Amazonian village where the Belgian-Peruvian artist spent much of her childhood. The handpainted pieces bring the tropical atmosphere of her work to life. The 'Pijuayo' vase features a portrait of a woman on one side, and the fruit of the beach palm on the other. The simplicity of style is offset by an elaborate laddered handle on one side in blue. A work of art in its own right, this multicolor vase can be dressed with bright florals for spectacular displays.
