Ballerina by Mojsi Harka
This ceramic sculpture captures the expressive power of the human body through a bold focus on the legs in motion. The pose, dynamic yet grounded, conveys both strength and sensuality, highlighting the musculature and natural curves with remarkable detail. The matte skin-toned surface, accented by the reddish-pink tips of the feet, adds depth and realism while also emphasizing the artistic stylization.
Balancing between abstraction and figuration, the work celebrates movement, vulnerability, and physical presence — a piece that immediately commands attention in any setting.

About the Author:
Born in Albania in 1968, and a graduate of the University of Fine Arts in Tirana, this remarkable sculptor carries within his work the echoes of resilience and reinvention. After leaving his homeland during a time of profound change, he moved to Italy, where he was faced with the challenge of starting anew. From those struggles emerged a deeper artistic voice—one shaped by displacement, perseverance, and the search for beauty amidst uncertainty.
His inspiration flows from the raw poetry of nature: the elegance of felines, the flight of birds, the grace of the feminine form, and the abstraction of human experience. Through these themes, his sculptures embody both strength and fragility, capturing not only the essence of the natural world but also the story of an artist who transformed hardship into timeless creation.
