Signed Maggie Brockie Australian Sleeping Platypus Pottery Sculpture A beautiful Australian studio pottery sculpture by Queensland ceramic artist Maggie Brockie, known for her sculptural interpretations of Australian native wildlife. This charming piece depicts a sleeping or curled platypus, modelled in a wonderfully compact, rounded form with a warm earthy brown finish. The simplified flowing lines give the sculpture a lovely modernist quality while retaining the character of the platypus. Signed “Maggie” to the underside with the artist's impressed mark. A lovely piece for a collector of Australian studio pottery, Australian wildlife art or contemporary Australian ceramics. It also displays beautifully in organic modern, mid-century modern or collected pottery interiors.
