“Portrait Cup with Yellow Lines Ceramic” ( 7.5″ x 8″ x 7″) is part of a series that was originally inspired by the ritual stirrup vessels of the Moche culture (1st – 9th century AD) from Peru, Ovidio Giberga says, “The stirrup spout in my work serves as a compelling design feature but more importantly references the “figure as vessel” metaphor, inviting the viewer to think abstractly as to their content and purpose. “ His titles suggest anthropological artifacts, specific to his place and time.
