RA Hetherington "Evil" 8" Ceramic Grenade Sculpture DF5975

Evil is a hand-built ceramic sculpture shaped like a bottle and topped with a detailed grenade form. Finished in matte black glaze with bold red accents, the piece carries a raised plaque reading “EVIL” across the front.

The exaggerated grenade cap and ring transform the vessel into a charged symbol, turning a familiar object into a blunt visual statement. The stark color contrast—black and red—reinforces the theme without subtlety.

As with much of Hetherington’s work, the piece pairs a simple word with strong imagery. It plays with labeling, moral judgment, and the power of language to define. Direct, satirical, and visually striking, Evil reflects his narrative approach to ceramic sculpture—clear symbolism, bold form, and pointed humor.

Measures 5" tall, not including the duck stopper. 8" tall with stopper.
