Mixed Media Wall Sculpture by Char – Mask, Tarot, Found Object Shelf

This striking mixed media wall assemblage is signed “Char” on the rear upper right and constructed using reclaimed wood from an antique crate or trunk. Marked "9401" on the back, it serves as both a sculptural artwork and a functional shelf. The composition features an eclectic mix of found objects, including a vividly painted folk mask, a radiant sunburst form made from metal and wire, a miniature textile doll, a ceramic bird, vintage photographs, and a tarot card marked “XVIII.”

Measuring 12 x 27 x 4.5 inches, this horizontal shadowbox blends rustic aesthetics with vivid colors and cultural references, evoking Latin American folk art, outsider art traditions, and surrealist assemblage. The inclusion of measuring tape trim, clamp hardware, and playful collage elements like a “NINA” nameplate and vintage packaging, adds both whimsy and symbolic depth.

Ideal for collectors of narrative, visionary, or mixed media art, this piece invites close inspection and layered interpretation.

Condition:
In excellent condition, with a rustic and distressed appearance that is intentional and integral to the artist's vision. The reclaimed wood structure is sturdy, with patina and wear consistent with the vintage materials used. All attached elements are secure.
