RA Hetherington "I Love My Chicken" 8" Ceramic Sculpture DF5977

This hand-built ceramic sculpture features a tall white bottle form crowned with a small rooster. Below, a wide red-lipped grin wraps around the lower portion of the vessel, revealing detailed teeth that contrast sharply with the otherwise minimal surface.

Kiln-fired and finished in glossy glaze, the piece balances simplicity with surprise. The clean white form allows the rooster and exaggerated mouth to command attention, creating a playful yet slightly unsettling effect.

As with much of Hetherington’s work, the sculpture uses humor and visual contradiction to invite interpretation. The pairing of barnyard imagery with a stylized grin feels both lighthearted and subtly satirical.

Measures 5" tall, not including the chicken stopper. 7.5" tall with chicken stopper.
