The Charming Navigator

Sold

This is the "The Charming Navigator" a painted sculpture, in the form of a bear with mouse ears. Standing at 100 cm tall and approximately 60 cm wide, this hard polymer sculpture is vibrantly adorned with acrylic paint in warm tones. The bear, embodying the persona of a pilot, showcases large, expressive eyes fashioned from airplane wings.

The sculpture is a nostalgic homage to the airplane and travel culture of the late 1950s. It features a 360-degree painting of clouds with two planes in descent—one in the front and one on the bear's back. The bear's ears are illuminated with painted airplane lights, surrounded by countless intricate details reminiscent of the aviation industry.

The artwork expresses an uplifting, comic-like charm, transforming a playful figure into a tangible, vibrant piece that celebrates the spirit of mid-century aviation and (comic) pop culture.
